"This Award means so much more to me than the W.C. Handy Award in the States, 'cause that one comes from the industry and it's politics, you know. But the Talkin' Blues Award comes right from the heart of the people. It's a great honor and I'm very proud and happy to get this one!" - Aron Burton, Chicago/USA, 3 times nominee for the W.C. Handy Award, Talkin Blues Award Winner of March 1998.
