Jazz groups have to make a living any way.

Play as well as you can all the time, and if you're truthful to your thing, you'll succeed.

We have the freedom to either play a tempo or not to play a tempo; to play a note or not to play a note; or to play what some people would say is a sound.

We expect the listener to have, like, a movie going on when they hear us. That's what it's all about for us.

We're just beginning to learn the importance of music in our society.

What I've been trying to do for years is to get the music played on a station other than jazz stations, you know, to expand the audience.

A chord is just the name of a sound.
