I Really Create Everything I Do From

I've Never Personally Criticized Anyone Else's Music, But I Know That The Public's Real Problem Is Not The Music I Make But The Perception That I Play Simple Music For Money Only And For The Notoriety And To Increase My Popularity.

The Criticism Is That It's Too Simple, But My Feeling Is It's More Of A Challenge Making Someone Feel An Emotion In Four Notes Than In 25 Notes.

I Really Create Everything I Do From The Heart.

Just Because People Play Songs With Great Technique Doesn't Mean The Records Are Better.

Well, Grover Washington Was My Main Influence And When I Went To College, I Started Listening To More Of The Jazz Masters Like Sonny Rollins, Cannonball Adderley, And John Coltrane.
