I'm a firm believer and I think my religion is inside.
I was still in school at the time and Cab was very popular and everybody was doing Cab Calloway so I did.
If you want to be a musician, study your craft. Study music.
My youngest daughter sings. She's going to be very good. She's graduated from Music School and she's been working down around and getting her feet wet, you know. I had her out with me for a year just showing her the ropes a little bit, but she's going to be all right.
I'm used to hearing myself. My own voice.
My view is that you cannot close your mind and say I don't want to listen to this or that. Because if you can't appreciate the bad for being bad, you can't appreciate the good. If you turn a deaf ear to everything but one style, pretty soon it's not going to work out.
