The Music Dictates To Me

The Biggest Government Waste: The Death Penalty. An Individual Death-penalty Case Could Climb To $100 Million, Much Of It Spent At The Litigation Level. Also, Dna Evidence Has Exonerated Nearly 300 Death-row Inmates.

I Find Indian Music Very Funky. I Mean It's Very Soulful, With Their Own Kind Of Blues. But It's The Only Other School On The Planet That Develops Improvisation To The High Degree That You Find In Jazz Music. So We Have A Lot Of Common Ground.

You Can Have The Greatest Player In Terms Of Mastering An Instrument And You Could Be Yawning Your Head Off When You Hear Them. So, It's Not What You Do, But The Way You're Doing It And In The End That's All That We Have

In A Certain Sense, These Were Lessons I Learned By Playing With Indian Musicians. The Rhythmic Forms That They Use Are Very Complex, And Very Challenging. In Order To Play In Fifteen, Or Eleven, Or Seven Or Even Five, You Have To Have Mastered That Time In Order To Be Able To Be Free With The Music.

I Don't Have Any Particular Goals In Making A Recording. In A Way The Recording Is Itself The Goal. The Music Comes Into My Mind, And From There The Main Job Is To Give Form To It.
