I guess, we were people who just dedicated to trying to get better.

The sudden passing of Jack Bruce is terribly sad news. One of the greatest rock bassists to ever live and a true and profound inspiration to countless musicians. He was one of my first bass heroes and was a major influence on my playing and my music. My heartfelt condolences to his family and fans.

There was a time when fast playing and fretboard pyrotechnics on the bass were important to me and when I am recording a bass track, that is still very important to me.

Sometimes it's nice to have a song that can be taken more then one way, so it can be interpreted differently.

I liked the fact that I was forced to get inside of my emotions and to really try to figure out a lot of what I was going through.

Music is all about wanting to be better at it.

If you have some magical chemistry that actually find the music you make compelling, that is a big bonus.
