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.

Music is one big thing to me.

If jazz has to be termed as a wave, then music is a sea, but if the reflectors in the water is the chord.

The first thing I learned was the theme from Peter Gunn.

Its more about conception and touch and spirit and soul than whether my hardware was in place.

As much as I have done collaborations over the years, I am actually kind of a reluctant partner.

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