I did the stardom thing and I am thankful to God that I survived it! I would never want to go back to that way of life and I don't seek flattery in any context.

Visible Faith is an expression of my Christian faith which must be visible to be real! I gave the name to the collection of musicians who worked with me on the record.

People often forget this-a vinyl album could only contain a maximum of 20 minutes per side!

I didn't know that you were supposed to tune the guitar to an open chord, and I learned to play slide with a normal tuning. I think it's a little more melodic that way and doesn't sound so bluesy. Of course, if I could play like David Lindley or Ry Cooder, I'd be a happy man!

I am, first of all, a Christian and, secondly, a person with very very serious personal opinion, so I'm motivated by many many things and, certainly, not by the need or desire to satisfy other people's ideas of who I am.

I always write lyrics first and the rhythm and the melody come from the lyrics. It always comes from the lyrics: words have rhythm and words have melody.

I actually never knew Peter Green but I do respect his early work very much.

I actually developed my style by a complete mistake!

Before God took over my life, I was living for myself and living for now. At this time, I am living to glorify God and lieving with my eternal future in mind.
