I recorded my first jazz record in the '70s.

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'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.

Too often, the opportunity knocks, but by the time you push back the chain, push back the bolt, unhook the two locks and shut off the burglar alarm, it's too late.

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

I've always loved jazz.
