I Still Got My Ferrari.

The Music Has Gotten Thick. Guys Give Me Tunes And They're Full Of Chords. I Can't Play Them...i Think A Movement In Jazz Is Beginning Away From The Conventional String Of Chords, And A Return To Emphasis On Melodic Rather Than Harmonic Variation. There Will Be Fewer Chords But Infinite Possibilities As To What To Do With Them.

If You Sacrifice Your Art Because Of Some Woman, Or Some Man, Or For Some Color, Or For Some Wealth, You Can't Be Trusted.

I've Come Close To Matching The Feeling Of That Night In 1944 In Music, When I First Heard Diz And Bird, But I've Never Got There. . . . I'm Always Looking For It, Listening And Feeling For It, Though, Trying To Always Feel It In And Through The Music I Play Everyday.

Always Look Ahead, But Never Look Back.

I Never Thought That The Music Called "jazz" Was Ever Meant To Reach Just A Small Group Of People, Or Become A Museum Thing Locked Under Glass Like All The Other Dead Things That Were Once Considered Artistic.
