"You need better technique than I have to play jazz, but what you have to do is the same thing, isn't it?"
Jazz
"I saw Al Foster with Miles Davis the other week. It was beautiful. But, the whole thing was, Al Foster played as well as everybody else, but all of them were quite brilliant under Miles Davis' direction."
Direction
"Usually I can hear the pianos, the saxophone, and usually I can hear Ronnie. But I really need to listen to Keith and Mick. The rest of the band is sort of an embellishment to that."
Rest

People
"For some reason at 12 or 13, I just heard Gerry Milligan and fell in love with that, whatever it was called."
Love

Love
