I look in music magazines now and see things on Luther Allison, and my name's getting out there more, thanks to all the good people at Alligator Records and at my management company.
Before I left, I opened a lot of doors for a lot of people to play the blues.
I focused on how these people became how they were.
I want people to recognize Luther Allison when I play.
I want to play in a place people want to hear me.
I went in '76, '78, '79, and I met people there who believed and knew a lot more about Luther Allison than the people in the States.
Leave your ego, play the music, love the people.
