I Sing The Songs That

The Music Was Thunder And Joy. Lightning Bolts Of Happiness And Praise, Foot-stomping, Dance-shouting, Good-feeling Singing From The Soul.

I've Gone Through So Much In My Life. I Should Have Been Dead A Long Time Ago, But I Am Still Here, And I'm The Happiest I've Ever Been.

I Talked To The Record Company About What I Had In Mind. They Said They Wanted Something Lush. I Figured The Best Thing To Do Was Let Them Hear What I Had In Mind.

People That Can't Stand To Listen To The Blues, They've Got To Be Phonies.

This Is An Album Of Songs That I've Always Loved, Tunes That I Heard. For The First Time In 53 Years Of Recording, I Really Had Control Over An Entire Album, Start To Finish.
