“I learned from the best,” grins Billy Gibbons on his knack for musical truths. “There’s a secret language to the blues - you need to say it without saying it! There is a mystique in the poetry and in those simple three chords that have been stretched every which way. You take a song from my new record like Mo’ Slower Blues: it just has one chord that it never leaves! It just stays on the tonic. It doesn’t need to do anything else.”

“I was talking to my dear buddy Jimmie Vaughan, who recounted a tale where BB King showed up and had his guitar with him.

"Jimmie was over the moon, pointing at the spare amp on stage. He took his solo and turned it over to BB after which he said he 'woke up in a daze'.

"He didn’t think BB played more than two notes throughout the solo, but that’s all that was required. Sometimes those spare, skinny moments make the most sense.”
