I choose things by how they resonate in my heart.
I've always loved jazz.
I think the challenges for me was to go into the studio with these incredible jazz players and come up to their level of excellence. That's always a challenge.
It seems that jazz is more cerebral and more mathematical in a sense.
If I'm driving to L.A. and have anxiety about making the drive, if I've got Peggy with me, we're cool.
I wanted to make a jazz record. I didn't want it to be a standards record.
