Selfishly, I make music for me. I like to make music. I like looking for songs. I like working with interesting musicians. I like producing records. It's something I will always do.

The reaction to this album has just been fabulous around the world... and I've had offers to perform from around the world and I'm tempted to do it. I've got itchy lips.

Clifford Brown was in the jazz circles considered to be probably the greatest trumpet player who ever lived.

I wake up in the morning, I do a little stretching exercises, pick up the horn and play.

It's - as opposed to tape where you have a magnetic tape that's excited by frequencies that you hit, digital was a process where musical sounds are transferred to numbers and stored as numbers.

I'm an old-timer in the business from the sense that when you do something that you feel good about there might be another person out there who feels the same way, or a hundred or a couple million.

I like to listed to the adventurous guys - the Coltranes, Miles Davis, the guys who just let it loose.
