Just Because People Play Songs

I Practice My Saxophone Three Hours A Day. I'm Not Saying I'm Particularly Special, But If You Do Something Three Hours A Day For Forty Years, You Get Pretty Good At It.

The Criticism Is That It's Too Simple, But My Feeling Is It's More Of A Challenge Making Someone Feel An Emotion In Four Notes Than In 25 Notes.

The Moment Is An Album That Contains The Best Music I Have Ever Produced.

I've Never Personally Criticized Anyone Else's Music, But I Know That The Public's Real Problem Is Not The Music I Make But The Perception That I Play Simple Music For Money Only And For The Notoriety And To Increase My Popularity.

I Don't Play The Traditional Charlie Parker Songs. But I Do Improvise And I Do Create With My Instrument, And That To Me Is Jazz. But There Are People Who Use The Word 'jazz' Only In A Traditional Sense, And They Would Be Offended By That, And That's Fine.
