I've Performed Solo For 20

Whoever Has An Original Thing To Say, It Is Sort Of A Threat To The Status Quo.

I Still Love The Whole History Of Jazz. The Old Things Sound Better Than Ever.

There Is An Awful Lot Of What I Call Recreational Jazz Going On, Where People Go Out And Learn A Particular Language Or Style And Become Real Sharks On Somebody Else's Language.

If You're Trying To Invent Something New, You're Going To Reach A Lot Of Discouraging Points, And Most People Give Up.

The More Original Something Is, The More Of A Threat It Seems Until The People Catch Up With It. That Happened With Thelonious Monk. It Happened With Anybody Who Is Really Original.
