You know, if you really want to fiddle the old-time way, you've got to learn the dance. The contra-dances, hoedowns. It's all in the rhythm of the bow. The great North Carolina fiddle player Tommy Jarrell said, 'If a feller can't bow, he'll never make a fiddler. He might make a violin player, but he'll never make no fiddler.' ↗

My earliest professional musical experiences were really as a session player, and every day was an adventure. Three sessions a day, every day, and you never knew who you would be working with until you arrived at the studio. ↗

A manager should stay as far away as possible from his players. I don't know if I said ten words to Frank Robinson while he played for me. ↗

At the time, I didn't know that bass would not be enough for me. I'm not a bass player because bass is always a background instrument even to this very day. ↗
