To Me, There Is Spirit

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

You Must Have The Music To Justify An Instrument's Extensive Use.

If You Have Music You Want To Play That No One Asks You To Play, You Have To Go Out And Find Where You Can Play It. It's Called Do Or Die.

When I Came Up, It Was All About Originality And Collective Research. There Is An Awful Lot Of Imitation Going On Now.

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.
