When You're Dead, You're Done.

If It Hadn't Been For Jazz, There Wouldn't Be No Rock And Roll.

The Memory Of Things Gone Is Important To A Jazz Musician. Things Like Old Folks Singing In The Moonlight In The Back Yard On A Hot Night Or Something Said Long Ago.

If You Have To Ask What Jazz Is, You'll Never Know.

Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans. When That's Where You Left Your Heart. The Moonlight On The Bayou A Creole Tune That Fills The Air. I Dream About Magnolias In Bloom And I'm Wishin' I Was There.

A Lot Of The Musicians Asked Me If When I Hit My High-cs On The Records I Had A Clarinet Take The Notes. Some [thought] I Had Invented Some Kind Of Gadget So I Could Play High Register. They Weren't Satisfied Until They Handed Me A Trumpet That They Had With Them And Had Me Swing It. Then They Cheered.
