Djs And People In The Street Know

The True Beauty Of Music Is That It Connects People. It Carries A Message, And We, The Musicians, Are The Messengers.

When I Was Recording From '70 To '82, I Always Played Piano And Laid The Tracks Down. But I Used To Talk To The Other Musicians While The Track Was Playing.

I Couldn't Get My Album Played Over The So-called Smooth Jazz Stations. Jazz Stations Would Not Play It. You Don't Always Know Who You're Making That Soul Connection With.

I Was With Polygram; That Was The Big Label That I Was With For The Longest, Like 12 Years.

Some People Really Trip On Success Or Popularity. My Friends Would Talk To Me About That, About Tripping On All This Stuff, But You Know What I Tripped On? I Started Buying Property.
