"I've talked with other guys about that. They said, 'Yeah, I've experienced that once or twice.' But not all the time. It just happens for a while. But I love those things. And I am still playing at a high level now."

"It's hard sometimes to come to those peaks we used to get when we played every night. You would just reach these peaks and you'd say, 'Damn!' They'd just be so good. It was like leaving your body and looking down at yourself and watching yourself play."

Happy Birthday Roy McCurdy

"I am a Romanticist, angry, love, beautiful, all the components of our life. When I play I am always thinking about sound, work on the sound, not the technique; when I can't express what I want with the sax, I sing."

Happy Birthday Gato Barbieri

"Gigi Gryce was a real warrior, but he dealt with a lot of racism. He tried to get all of us to protect our music, but the establishment didn't want to deal with that." - Randy Weston

"I absolutely avoid all kinds of feedback, whether it is good or bad - feedback is ALWAYS creating excess noise in my mind instead of SERENITY. I am most comfortable about making metal and making trees grow."

"'Why do you play that way' or 'what are you doing?' Musicians like Eric Dolphy were attacked with those same questions, but there were those on the other side [especially in Europe] who said 'just play that way, do what you want.'"

"Improvisation has a quality of bringing together very good things and very bad things, but the will to improvisation is nevertheless very strong. For me, it was a conflict between the written tradition and what was 'spoken', if you will."

Happy Birthday Michel Portal

"I am rooted in traditional music but I'm also interested in tomorrow's music. I want to speak to everyone on the planet. That’s what I would relay to the people. But, I think it’s an unspoken thing because that idea gets relayed through the music anyway."

Happy Birthday Wilber Morris

"With jazz you don't have to speak a language. You can go to any country in the world and play with musicians, and you understand each other. It's a feeling for the music."

Cecil Payne

"Intelligence, respectful and responsible, perhaps even critical curiosity, a discerning, self-critical ear. A willingness to take risks. The ability to think for oneself."

"Why am I doing this stuff? That may seem like a foolish thing to say, but when you come from the kind of background I came from there are not many roots to lead you to a certain outcome in say, fine arts, as they are thought of in the USA. You can make yourself up from scratch."

"The thing I think is important here is the idea of body and mind. The fact that something appears is enough: there might be an extension in some way but that is not necessarily where all of the real information of the works lies."
