When You're A Plebeian You Want Success,

I Was Curious And Hungry At A Young Age, And Jazz Was Such A Mystery To Me, An Ocean Where You Can Express Yourself In The Moment. It Represented Freedom, It Represented Wearing Wings And Going Somewhere With Music.

Feminists Were Psyched That I Had Armpit Hair

For Me Music Is A Vehicle To Bring Our Pain To The Surface, Getting It Back To That Humble And Tender Spot Where, With Luck, It Can Lose Its Anger And Become Compassion Again.

Walking Is Magic. Can't Recommend It Highly Enough. I Read That Plato And Aristotle Did Much Of Their Brilliant Thinking Together While Ambulating. The Movement, The Meditation, The Health Of The Blood Pumping, And The Rhythm Of Footsteps...this Is A Primal Way To Connect With One's Deeper Self.

I See My Albums As Working Diaries, As Living Scrapbooks Of Me And My Life.
