I think I had kind of an advantage. When I was growing up, my dad had just got out of jail and he had a great record collection. He had - it was all - these were the songs. So I heard a lot of these songs, like, my whole life, so for me it was easy. I already knew what I was going to sing.
I abhor a hoe. I am fond of flowers but not of dirt, and had rather buy them than cultivate them.
I think there is something about coming to a city to work that puts you in touch with it in a different way.
