"Be true to yourself. Don’t try to please the masses too much, especially in such a very personal music style like the Blues. If you get lucky and are suddenly making big money, make sure to save some for a rainy day. Success usually won’t last forever, neither will your health."

"I think people just worked harder in general back in the 60s and as a result, were able to create some great stuff, including music. As time went on, everything has gotten easier. You no longer have to devote years to your craft if you don’t want to. It’s easier than ever to create, record and release music and as a result, there’s a lot more poor quality music out there."

Mojo Minefield: Blues n'…

"Blues is a feeling not a historic artefact. Part of its development (and it’s the same in jazz), was that musicians became more proficient on their instruments, to the point of being virtuoso's."

"I just hope the generations of the future don’t forget the genre. There is a lot of great younger players climbing up the ranks. Hopefully they keep the blues tradition alive. I would like to see schools have more music classes and teach the kids about the culture of the blues. Today’s society tends to be too busy and fast paced. I miss the simpler times."

Lone Star Mojo: From Heart and…

"The Blues changed. When my father was a young man the blues was a black audience, but when Eric Clapton, the Rolling Stones, and Johnny Winters introduced the world to my father the Blues became white overnight. But the Blues is the foundation of music and crosses cultural borders – no boundaries – meaning age or race."

Mojo Morganfield: Blues Royal Bloodline…

"There are so many very talented young women artists these day. I didn’t think it was a big deal anymore. Huh. Well we though we were done with racism to. Look at these nuts! As women we know better. Men and women need each other. Get along. The best thing about these times is, we can in the words of the great Grace Slick “Fuck you we do what we want”."

Gail Muldrow: Mojo…

"For me 'Blues' mean 'touch' the truth…I'll explain: all the people knows the sunrise and sunset, but until we 'see' with our eyes sunrise and sunset, we do not completely account. The blues for me is…yesterday, today…but in particular, tomorrow."

Gianluca Diana: Got My Mojo…

"Life. The ups, the downs, the successes, the failures, love, loss… you name it. It’s all about the human condition. If you’ve experienced sadness, heartache, or joy, you can write a song about it."

Dave Orban: The Mojo (Philly) Gypsies…

"It's the feelings what people always find in blues time after time. It's so colorful that it's inexhaustible; there is always a novelty in it."

Mojo Workings…

"The Blues like Jazz in that it’s real music made by real people playing real instruments. The human touch my man...that’s what it is."

"I know a blues when I hear one, and I get very comfortable whenever there’s good music: So whatever the label may be, it’ll always be the music that matters."
