I Say What's In My

There Was A Subtlety About Peggy Lee. It Was Powerful. There Was A Valuable Use Of Space. Everything Was Not Cluttered. Her Voice Was Out Front And Was The Key Instrument.

It Seems That Jazz Is More Cerebral And More Mathematical In A Sense.

I Was Kind Of Known As A Ballad Singer. People Would Send Ballads. Some Of Them Would Go Over My Shoulder And Float Off The Top Of My Head, And I Just Didn't Feel Anything. Then I Would Hear A Song That Would Absolutely Shake Me.

I Choose Things By How They Resonate In My Heart.

I Think The Challenges For Me Was To Go Into The Studio With These Incredible Jazz Players And Come Up To Their Level Of Excellence. That's Always A Challenge.
