Who knows ... we'll be playing Jazz and having a good time!

Jazz is known all over the world as an American musical art form and that's it. No America, no jazz. I've seen people try to connect it to other countries, for instance to Africa, but it doesn't have a damn thing to do with Africa.

There's nothing wrong with it. It's only a word. What's in a name? Nothing! Cats say, "Call me Muhammed so-and-so. "

They say that Jazz is back, and I don't think it's gone anywhere. But they say it's back.

We're here to have a ball.

Music is supposed to wash away the dust of everyday life

You can't seperate modern jazz from rock or from rhythm and blues - you can't seperate it. Because that's where it all started, and that's where it all come from - that's where I learned to keep rhythm - in church
