My mother wanted me to be a concert pianist.

You can be enticed by food, wooed by food, sex, money, or instruments.

I got private lessons in keyboard at Julliard, before New England Conservatory of Music in Boston.

I talk by playing, not by words.

Woo means the ability to entice someone or something to get what you want. My first solo album was called: All the Woo of the Universe, which was titled by George Clinton.

I don't listen to a lot of radio today. It's not really music to me.
