“I don't wanta do any Blues or any sad songs.” — Bob Livingston Quote

“I don't wanta do any Blues or any sad songs.”

“The Vietnam War was happening, but Lubbock was... They put a pinch on it.”

“I had never, ever drunk beer in high school, and by the time I got to Tech we were having these parties out in the cotton fields and getting so drunk. I was the champion beer drinker; suddenly I was pouring it down my throat... Insane! Insane!”

“To me, country music is like the blues, but it's something very hip and - I don't want to say commercial - but it's very worldly and good listening.”

“One critic called me nothing but a blues singer, as though that was a slight. That is the highest compliment there is.”

“Doo-wop was full of blues for me.”
