You Want To Know How I Started

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.

I Did Bronislaw Kaper's Tune. He Wrote "on Green Dolphin Street." I Mean, I Did All Those Ballads, All Them Ballads From South America. All Those Tunes - The Guitar Concerto On Sketches Of Spain. All Those Are Spanish Melodies. Some Of Them We Made Up Ourselves.

When I Went In There, We Used Drum Machine On "time After Time" And "human Nature".we Don't Use The Drum Machine To Play A Pattern. You Play The Pattern By Being Consistent.

Do Not Be Afraid Of Errors. There Are No Errors.

The Way You Change And Help Music Is By Tryin' To Invent New Ways To Play
