• The guitar is a means of expressing music, When you get into the emotional side of it, then it's not the guitar that matters so much as the music itself. But the guitar is the vehicle I use. It's how I express myself. As for the emotional side, music takes up where language leaves off. To try and verbalize what music says, emotionally and spiritually, is futile. Let me put it this way, Louis Armstrong once said if you've got to ask, you'll never know.

• Por lo general, nadie sabía muy bien dónde iba a estar Django Reinhardt, pero me encontré con su hermano y, aproximadamente una hora después, entró Django con un séquito de amigos. Siempre viajaba con un grupo numeroso; llevaba consigo a sus propios admiradores, el grupo de matones de aspecto más siniestro que jamás hayas visto. Me acerqué y le ofrecí invitarle a una copa. Me pareció lo correcto... Fue el primer guitarrista solista realmente brillante que conocí, tenía discos suyos cuando tenía 10 años. Me alucinaba que alguien pudiera tocar una guitarra así. Aún lo hace.

• I had been to São Paulo the year before and became pretty well acquainted with the music of composer Antonio Carlos Jobim, I had already started playing that music, and the audience response had been pretty good because those songs are so melodic. I knew it would be something that would be appealing; I wasn't thinking that it would make the top of the pop charts or anything like that.
