I Don't Care Much About Music. What

It's Taken Me All My Life To Learn What Not To Play.

Jazz Will Be The Classical Music Of The Future.

You Can't Steal A Gift. Bird [charlie Parker] Gave The World His Music, And If You Can Hear It You Can Have It.

I Was Blessed That I Got Married Early And Had A Good Wife. That Sort Of Kept Me Straight. Probably I Would Have Been Like Charlie Parker, You Know, Involved In Drugs Or Alcohol Or Something Like That If I Hadn't Had This Stability.

Nothing Surpasses My Performances With Small Bands, Especially With Charlie Parker. A Small Band Doesn't Forestall Creativity.
