  • Well, since I produce and pay for my own albums, it is the ultimate freedom.

  • I'm really looking forward to playing in Copenhagen again. Last time I stayed as long as I could, took pictures, signed autographs, and hung out until they through me out of the place!

  • I work with many jazz artists as Miles Davis, Laughlin, etc.. One of the things all these artists had in common is that they had no fear.

  • At the end of '69 I did a gig with Jean Luc Ponty here in L.A. He was an electric violinist.

  • I would much prefer that they take me as I am, that way the experience is genuine between the both of us.

  • We're performing several shows in the Canary Islands.

  • Frank liked me because I went nuts on the piano using feet, head, whatever I could find to bang on the piano.

  • I also hope that with the assistance and expertise of Dome Records, that I will be able to further pierce the UK and European market. I really like playing there and I want to do more! I've found that the audiences get quite involved and really listen to what's happening.

  • I mean this record does not sound like somebody's maiden voyage.

  • Artists, whether they're classical musicians or pop musicians, they have always been the reflection of society, and in many ways a healing part of whatever is wrong in society, and I think it's important for us to continue to do that, and I don't see enough of it today.

  • I grew up with Al Jarreau. We had a band together and worked these places for three years when neither one of us knew we could make a living doing music.

  • I've developed an audience over the years and I don't want to loose them.

  • When I think about my new CD, the word 'joy' comes to mind. I sincerely hope that each listener will feel the earth, spirit, and aggressive creativity emanating from this album.

  • Im also working on a track for Howard Hewett, and a theme for a new NPR show.

  • The majority of the people I work with are more than musicians and singers, they are personal friends and friends help each other.
