You Can't Help It. An Artist's Duty,

It's Time To Take A Look At My Failures And Stop Calling Them Successes. Now I Can Start Working At Something That Can Use Me Best.

I Can't Stand Loud Guitars That Make Me Deaf.

I Love To Travel To Hear Different Kinds Of Music.

I Was Reared In The Church From The Age Of Three. I've Played Piano Since I Was Three. I Performed At Revivals And For My People Around North Carolina For Several Years. People Around Town Collected Money To Send Me To School.

I'm Sorry That I Did Not Become The World's First Black Classic Pianist. I Think I Would Have Been Happier.
