And If I Don't Be There By

It's Been Very Important Throughout My Career That I've Met All The Guys I've Copied, Because At Each Stage They've Said, 'don't Play Like Me, Play Like You.'

I Couldn't Believe How Good Jimi Hendrix Was It Was A Really Difficult Thing For Me To Deal With, But I Just Had To Surrender And Say, 'this Is Fantastic.'

I Listened To King Oliver And I Listened To Louis Armstrong, Jelly Roll Morton, Thelonious Monk, Charles Mingus, John Coltrane, Archie Shepp... I Listened To Everything I Could That Came From That Place That They Call The Blues But, In Formality, Isn't Necessarily The Blues.

The Point Of Being At Home Is To Be With My Family As Much As Possible.

Although They Can Do It All The Time, You Know, They're Far Better Than Me, On A Musically, On A Theoretical Music Level. You Know, They're Out Of My League.
