If I'm not a jazz player all the time, I've at least been cued in to what I do by jazz.

If a person plays dissonance long enough, it will sound like consonance. It's a language that was alien and then it's less and less alien as it continues to live.

When I joined the band I didn't know any of the tunes, and when I left the band I didn't know any of the tunes!

I actually get a metallic taste in my mouth when I think about electric music.

Once we're inside a tune, we can do anything with it.

Music always turns into music. As soon as I play a key, push a key down, there's no theory any more. When I go and I hear a sound on the keyboard, all theories go out the window.
