I'm motivated. The spirit hits me and I just keep going and don't stop. The more I play, the more I can invent, the more ideas come to me.
Playing is my way of thinking, talking, communicating.
It's always Jazz. You can put a new dress on her, a new hat, but no matter what kind of clothes she's the same old broad.
Man, as long as people want to hear Jazz, I'll give it to them.
Every day I look forward to getting with my instruments, trying new things.
Seemed to me that drumming was the best way to get close to God.
