He remains one of the world's premier acoustic blues artists. A tireless performer, he passed his 4000th date back in June 2008 and continues to tour world-wide on an annual basis "John's sound is so compelling, complete, symmetrical and soulful with just his voice, guitar and harmonica, it is at first impossible to imagine improving it... He's a great force of nature. John sounds like a big train coming. He chops them all down." - Tom Waits
