Records Used To Be Documents, But Now

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.

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 Appreciate Men Like Ben Webster And Coleman Hawkins Very Much.

The Value Of Jazz Still Has To Be Clarified. People Involve Themselves With Its Superficialities Without Digging For Its Soul.

I'm A Recovered Alcoholic. I Don't Do Anything Anymore, But Those Things, Those Things Take Away ... You're A Different Personality Completely When You Take Those. For Those Who Are Really Chemically Dependent On Anything, It's Not You.
