We Recorded To Document Ourselves,

People Think That I Play Effortlessly. I Remember Doing A Record Date With Bill Evans And Afterwards He Said To Me, You Make It Sound So Easy But When I Get Right Up Next To You You're Working Hard And Making It Sound Easy!

The Saxophone Is An Imperfect Instrument, Especially The Tenor And Soprano, As Far As Intonation Goes. The Challenge Is To Sing On An Imperfect Instrument That Is Outside Of Your Body.

I Learn Something New Every Day - To Edit, To Take Out All The Extraneous Matter And Stress Form, Logic, And Content. I Try To Play Beautiful Music.

Switch To Piano! No. Really, If You Like An Instrument That Sings, Play The Saxophone. At Its Best It's Like The Human Voice. Of Course, It Would Be Best If You Could Actually Sing With Your Own Voice. The Saxophone Is An Imperfect Instrument, Especially The Tenor And Soprano, As Far As Intonation Goes. Therefore, The Challenge Is To Sing On An Imperfect Instrument Or 'voice' That Is Outside Of Your Body. I Love That Challenge And Have For Over Forty-five Years. As Far As Playing Jazz, No Other Art Form, Other Than Conversation, Can Give The Satisfaction Of Spontaneous Interaction.

I Played In Rhumba Bands, Mickey Mouse Bands; All Kinds Of Bands.
