The following was posted on the "Me & Mr Johnson" page (before it became a redirect):

Eric has been quoted speaking this tribute to his inspiration (if you like):

  • "ITS A REMARKABLE THING...to have been driven and influenced all of my life by the work of one man. And even though I accept that it has always been the keystone of my musial foundation, I still would not regard it as an obsession, instead, I prefer to think of it as a landmark that I navigate by, whenever I feel myself going adrift.
  • "I'M TALKING OF COURSE, ABOUT THE WORK OF ROBERT JOHNSON, Up until I heard his music, everything I had ever heard seemed as if It was dressed up for a shop window somewhere, so that when I heard him for the first time, it was like he was singing only for himself, and now and then, maybe God...At first it scared me in its intensity, and I could only take it in small doses. Then I would build up strength and take a little more, but I could never really get away from it, and in the end, it spoiled me for everything else...
  • "NOW, AFTER ALL THSESE YEARS, his music is like my oldest friend, always in the back of my head, and on the horizon. Its the finest music I have ever heard. I have always trusted its purity, and I always will" ERIC.C
