Jazz Is What I Play

I Don't Need Words. It's All In The Phrasing.

If You Don't Understand It, Don't Mess With It.

My Life Has Always Been My Music, It's Always Come First, But The Music Ain't Worth Nothing If You Can't Lay It On The Public. The Main Thing Is To Live For That Audience, 'cause What You're There For Is To Please The People.

When You're Dead, You're Done.

Making Money Ain't Nothing Exciting To Me. You Might Be Able To Buy A Little Better Booze Than The Wino On The Corner. But You Get Sick Just Like The Next Cat And When You Die You're Just As Graveyard Dead As He Is.
