And No Again: My Studio Is Not

I'm Very Honored And Thankful If Someone Says Something Nice About My Playing, But In General I'm Very Critical Of What I Do.

It's Not Art, It's Science.

Music Is Always Changing And The Changes Are Unpredictable.

It Was Also Important For Me To Have A Burning Desire To Achieve Something Worthwhile On That Instrument, And I Devoted Many Many Many Hours With Little Or No Compensation To Perfecting Whatever I Could, Because I Loved It So Much.

I Didn't Follow The Standard Rules Of Bass Playing, And Many Musicians On Many Different Instruments Who Became Noteworthy For Their Unique Or Particular Style Did A Very Similar Thing.
