I recall BB King stating something similar about himself.


"I make money playing notes one at a time."

Perhaps not a direct quote, but it will do.

Albert King was a badass, no question. But also a giant prick. He would get humbled if he messed around with funk, traditional rock, even more R&B stuff, but for straight 12-bar blues players - improvisational, the classics, what have you - I'm not sure he had a peer.

We All Wanna Boogie is a funk masterpiece. Albert was an old school badass. He treated Stevie like a son. No special privileges, all about paying your dues.
