My Dark Sound Could Be Heard Across

You Don't Rehearse Jazz To Death To Get The Camera Angles.

Records Used To Be Documents, But Now Record Companies Want Product.

I Never Have Any Trouble Playing Anything I Can Think Of. The Trouble Is In Thinking Of What To Play.

When I Got This Saxophone, It Became A Religion. There Wasn't Tv, There Wasn't Much Money, And There Was Just A Real Dedication.... I Never Thought Of It As An Art. It Was Just Work That I Loved. Not Just Work, But Work That I Loved. I Loved It So Much, I Would Play It If Nobody Listened To It. Any Jazz Musician, If There's Nobody Around To Listen, Would Play Just For The Sheer Joy Of Improvising Music.

You Can Read All The Textbooks And Listen To All The Records, But You Have To Play With Musicians That Are Better Than You.
