People Will Go For Anything They Don't

Coltrane, You Cant Play Everything At Once!

The Music Speaks For Itself!

What's Swinging In Words? If A Guy Makes You Pat Your Foot And If You Feel It Down Your Back, You Don't Have To Ask Anybody If That's Good Music Or Not. You Can Always Feel It.

If You Make A Suggestion And [musicians] Don't Know What You Mean, You Have To Be Able To Do It Yourself. I Often Sit Down On Drums And Show 'em Just Exactly What I Want. And I Do It And Then Say, "how Do You Do That?" It's Because I Know How It Looks, I Know What I Want To Hear, And I Don't Drop Or Rush Any Tempo. It Ain't In My Body, It Ain't In My Nephew's Body.

I Keep Telling Ron Lorman And Them In The Control Room, "it's My Band! The Reason I Have A Band Is Because I Can't Stand For Somebody To Tell Me What To Do."
