"As for technique, tons of white American guitar players were better than me. Apart from the famous blues guys, there were a lot of white players too. REGGIE YOUNG, for example, a Memphis session player, was one of the best guitarists I had ever heard. I had seen him playing with the Bill Black Combo on the Ronettes package tour." ~ Eric Clapton
