Be A Number One Yourself. And Not

Music Is The Tonal Reflection Of Beauty.

Dancing Is Very Important To People Who Play Music With A Beat. I Think That People Who Don't Dance, Or Who Never Did Dance, Don't Really Understand The Beat... I Know Musicians Who Don't And Never Did Dance, And They Have Difficulty Communicating.

I Began By Tinkering Around With Some Old Tunes I Knew. Then, Just To Try Something Different, I Set To Putting Some Music To The Rhythm That I Used In Jerking Ice-cream Sodas At The Poodle Dog. I Fooled Around With The Tune More And More Until At Last, Lo And Behold, I Had Completed My First Piece Of Finished Music.

The Most Important Thing I Look For In A Musician Is Whether He Knows How To Listen.

How Can Anyone Expect To Be Understood Unless He Presents His Thoughts With Complete Honesty? This Situation Is Unfair Because It Asks Too Much Of The World. In Effect, We Say, ' I Don't Dare Show You What I Am Because I Don't Trust You For A Minute But Please Love Me Anyway Because I So Need You To. And, Of Course, If You Don't Love Me Anyway, You're A Dirty Dog, Just As I Suspected, So I Was Right In The First Place.' Yet, Every Time God's Children Have Thrown Away Fear In Pursuit Of Honesty-trying To Communicate Themselves, Understood Or Not, Miracles Have Happened.
