I Never Consciously Tried To Conceive Of

My Dark Sound Could Be Heard Across A Room Clearer Than Somebody With A Reedy Sound. It Had More Projection. My Sound Always Seemed To Fill A Room.

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.

I Cannot Play A Lie. I Have To Believe In What I Play Or It Won't Come Out.

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!

I Compulsively Reach For Perfection In Music, Often At The Expense Of Everything Else In My Life.
