Jazz radio is not very friendly to pop singers who decide to make a jazz record. But a lot of people have been. A lot of the people I've talked to like the record.

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

I've always loved jazz.

It seems that jazz is more cerebral and more mathematical in a sense.

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