Wes Montgomery Music Quotations

I don't know whether it was his (Charlie Christian's) melodic lines, his sound or his approach, but I hadn't heard anything like that before. He sounded so good and it sounded so easy, so I bought me a guitar and an amplifier and said now I can't do nothing but play! Really, welding was my talent, I think, but I sort of swished it aside.

I got a standard box. I don't never want nothing special. Then if I drop my box, I can borrow somebody else's.

When I got pretty good I went on the road with a group. We starved.

I never practice my guitar. From time to time I just open the case & throw in a piece of raw meat.

Regardless of what you play, the biggest thing is keeping the feel going.
