I seldom play in a trio, but acoustic music is likely to be lighter, quicker, and quieter.

Holding on to some of your uniqueness is the trick instead of surrendering it at the Academy of Contemporary We're Gonna Make You a Star.

I warm naturally to the drummer whose ideas and approach are strong, even if he doesn't quite have the ability to carry them out.

One of the great things about having good players in your band is that you just ask them questions. You can pick up some good information that way.

Close to the Edge, Red, One of a kind, Discipline, Earthworks, The Sound of Surprise, all seem to me to be albums that captured the essence of the intention.

If I was hearing something I couldn't do, I would figure out how to do it.

Second edition of Earthworks I have the more traditional compositional approach, namely I write a piece from the piano.
