I find my inspiration in myself.
There are no wrong notes; some are just more right than others.
Sometimes it's to your advantage for people to think you're crazy
Be-bop wasn't developed in any deliberate way.
The majority of juice-heads and winos and junkies arent musicians.
Jazz is my adventure. I'm after new chords, new ways of syncopating, new figures, new runs. How to use notes differently. That's it. Just using notes differently.
