John Lee Hooker Is The Funkiest Man

If You Make A Suggestion And [musicians] Don't Know What You Mean, You Have To Be Able To Do It Yourself. I Often Sit Down On Drums And Show 'em Just Exactly What I Want. And I Do It And Then Say, "how Do You Do That?" It's Because I Know How It Looks, I Know What I Want To Hear, And I Don't Drop Or Rush Any Tempo. It Ain't In My Body, It Ain't In My Nephew's Body.

If You Hit A Wrong Note, It's The Next Note That You Play That Determines If It's Good Or Bad.

The Way You Change And Help Music Is By Tryin' To Invent New Ways To Play

Good Music Is Good No Matter What Kind Of Music It Is.

To Keep Creating You Have To Be About Change.
