Text Quotes

At that time I didn’t realize that you’d work one gig in Kansas City, the next in Florida and the next gig will be in Louisville. You know, a thousand miles a night. That was really rough, man  (Wes Montgomery Quotes) I never practice my guitar. From time to time I just open the case and throw in a piece of raw meat.  (Wes Montgomery Quotes) Regardless of what you play, the biggest thing is keeping the feel going  (Wes Montgomery Quotes) When I got pretty good I went on the road with a group. We starved  (Wes Montgomery Quotes) If a jazz player is really playing, the classical player will have to respect him  (Wes Montgomery Quotes) I’ve really gone into business since I got the 6 string, which was like starting all over  (Wes Montgomery Quotes) I never practice my guitar.

Then when you find a cat that’s really playing, you always find that he’s been playing a long time, you can’t get around it  (Wes Montgomery Quotes) I don’t know that many chords. I’d be loaded if I knew that many. But that’s not my aim. My aim is to move from one vein to the other without any trouble. The biggest thing to me is keeping a feeling, regardless what you play. So many cats lose their feeling at various times, not through the whole tune, but at various times, and it causes them to have to build up and drop down, and you can feel it  (Wes Montgomery Quotes)
