I like to listed to the adventurous guys - the Coltranes, Miles Davis, the guys who just let it loose.
I like to listen to classical music... I like mainline jazz.
If you look at a record under a microscope, the high frequencies are short jagged edges... and the low frequencies are long swinging ones are deep bass sounds. When it cut it at half speed, you're getting more of those on the record.
I'm seduced by the arts in general. Arts is like the power of now.
The Japanese seem to be a loyal audience.
I think jazz is a phenomenal creative force, because it's one man, one vote as you're playing, but it's a collective thing, what you're doing. You're listening to all the musicians around you and you're working within that structure.
