I've Performed Solo For 20 Years Now,

I Still Love The Whole History Of Jazz. The Old Things Sound Better Than Ever.

The Saxophone Is A Very Interesting Machine, But I'm More Interested In Music.

Register Is Very Important. Music Sounds Best In A Certain Register.

There Is An Awful Lot Of What I Call Recreational Jazz Going On, Where People Go Out And Learn A Particular Language Or Style And Become Real Sharks On Somebody Else's Language.

To Me, There Is Spirit In A Reed. It's A Living Thing, A Weed, Really, And It Does Contain Spirit Of A Sort. It's Really An Ancient Vibration.
