Don't Bother Me, Leave Me

It's Gotta Be Rock And Roll Music, If You Wanna Dance With Me.

Science And Religion Are Both The Same Thing. They're There; They're Life. If It's Not Science, It's Not A Fact.

My Music Is Simple Stuff. Anybody Can Sit Down, Look At A Set Of Symbols And Produce Sounds The Music Represents.

The Gateway To Freedom...was Somewhere Close To New Orleans Where Most Africans Were Sorted Through And Sold. I Had Driven Through New Orleans On Tour And I'd Been Told My Great Grandfather Had Lived Way Back Up In The Woods Among The Evergreens In A Log Cabin. I Revived The Era With A Song About A Coloured Boy Named Johnny B. Goode. My First Thought Was To Make His Life Follow As My Own Had Come Along, But I Thought It Would Seem Biased To White Fans To Say 'coloured Boy' And Changed It To 'country Boy'.

It Used To Be Called Boogie-woogie, It Used To Be Called Blues, Used To Be Called Rhythm And Blues...it's Called Rock Now.
