Jazz groups have to make a living any way.

These people are interested in a wide variety of music, and that's what we're into.

The way we look at it, everything is a sound.

You know when I was younger I used to look at Downbeat Magazine and I figured anybody in Downbeat must be making a living.

Because I believe that the future of the music lies in the Internet. It can be sold on the Internet.

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.

Jazz is so difficult. A lot of people think once they've learned these licks they can get up and play them for the rest of their life. But that's not being truthful to the music 'cause it's not developing. Cats you hear that don't make no mistakes? They ain't trying to do nothing. everything they hear is on the mark, but they've played it so many times... I've built a whole career out of making mistakes!
