I Learn Something New Every Day -

I Never Consciously Tried To Conceive Of What My Sound Should Be.

The Value Of Jazz Still Has To Be Clarified. People Involve Themselves With Its Superficialities Without Digging For Its Soul.

I Appreciate Men Like Ben Webster And Coleman Hawkins Very Much.

The Saxophone Is An Imperfect Instrument, Especially The Tenor And Soprano, As Far As Intonation Goes. The Challenge Is To Sing On An Imperfect Instrument That Is Outside Of Your Body.

I Cannot Play A Lie. I Have To Believe In What I Play Or It Won't Come Out.
