But, The Truth Is That

One Thing I Like About Jazz Is That It Emphasized Doing Things Differently From What Other People Were Doing.

I Got A Chance To Work With Miles Davis, And That Changed Everything For Me, 'cause Miles Really Encouraged All His Musicians To Reach Beyond What They Know, Go Into Unknown Territory And Explore. It's Made A Difference To Me And The Decisions That I've Made Over The Years About How To Approach A Project In This Music.

I'm Very Conscious Of The Idea Of Trying To Each Time Present Something That I Haven't Presented Before. It's A Challenge To Me To Find Something New, To Find Something Innovative, But It's Also Very Exciting.

I've Been A Religious, Spiritual Person For A Long Time.

Creativity And Artistic Endeavors Have A Mission That Goes Far Beyond Just Making Music For The Sake Of Music.
