I just have never seen anyone build anything significant in any field without having a deep and detailed sense of what they are building on.

There has to be a real strong reason to do something with someone for me.

Jazz music will continue to thrive, possibly in unexpected ways.

I don't worry too much about the fundamentalist principles that are in almost any discussion about Jazz.

And if I ever DO see [Kenny G] anywhere, at any function - he WILL get a piece of my mind, and maybe a guitar wrapped around his head.

I hate the way chorus boxes sound

Whatever my recorded output is, it's a reflection of a general love of music.
