Our record was at 98 in the charts when we went so no-one knew us, so people just didn't come to our shows - we'd be in a 10,000 stadium and there'd be 300 people there.
The Stones introduced all these young people to the blues music, and I'm doing the same thing.
It's also great to work with people I've known for many years.
I try to listen to the music channels but you hear stuff where people sing terribly out of tune and they play the wrong notes and chords.
If you are any competent musician, if you have creative ideas, ideas of songs, of arrangements, in a band like the Stones, where these 2 people do all the things, there is no freedom.
The first records I heard were from Dizzy Gillespie and people like that.
Because of the fashion, the young people don't have any access to the history of music, unless people like me revive it. There are very few people to revive it, because you can't earn any money doing it.
People will say that they never heard any of those songs before but back then, no one had heard the obscure songs the Stones were doing.
