We're Here To Have A Ball.

Jazz Is Known All Over The World As An American Musical Art Form And That's It. No America, No Jazz. I've Seen People Try To Connect It To Other Countries, For Instance To Africa, But It Doesn't Have A Damn Thing To Do With Africa.

The People Know More About [jazz] In Other Countries Than In America. America Is The Last Country To Know About Anything, Because We're Too Fat, We Have Too Much Of Everything, You Understand? And We Do Not Listen.

They Say That Jazz Is Back, And I Don't Think It's Gone Anywhere. But They Say It's Back.

Who Knows ... We'll Be Playing Jazz And Having A Good Time!

Music Is Supposed To Wash Away The Dust Of Everyday Life
