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.

I'm not stopping. My dream has come true, and I'm staying.

I think you have to have a jazz pedigree to be on jazz radio.

I've always loved jazz.

I've got my whole life. There's a lifetime of experience, a lifetime of experiencing the road and the music and different players. It makes me a richer human being. I have a greater source of information to tap into, a wealth of life.
