The Music Dictates To Me Which Instrument

When Indian Musicians Play A Raga It's Very Restrictive. But, In A Way These Restraints Are Essential To Liberate Yourself Through Them, If That Makes Sense. I'm Very Much Of This School Of Rhythm, It's The Direction I'm Drawn In When I'm Writing And Improvising.

I Find Indian Music Very Funky. I Mean It's Very Soulful, With Their Own Kind Of Blues. But It's The Only Other School On The Planet That Develops Improvisation To The High Degree That You Find In Jazz Music. So We Have A Lot Of Common Ground.

When You Open Box After Box Of Old Comics And They're All "archie," You Have Suffered A Trauma From Which It Is Difficult To Ever Recover.

I Don't Have Any Particular Goals In Making A Recording. In A Way The Recording Is Itself The Goal. The Music Comes Into My Mind, And From There The Main Job Is To Give Form To It.

The Music Dictates To Me Which Instrument I Use. I'm Basically Waiting For Orders As It Were.
