A lot of musicians have a tough time hearing what we're doing in a trio format.
From Branford Marsalis
You hear it in your brain. Whatever makes sense. Some songs work well as quartet songs, sometimes they don't.
When you're dealing with music without words, titles are more a means of identification than anything else. What's the point of getting lofty?
Jazz fans love Miles and I love him for a myriad of reasons, but the overviews are always too simplistic.
We played it as long as we could play it on that CD and I think it might be 50 minutes, maybe. What you have to do is play a couple of songs and then get off the stage because everything that trails it sounds stupid.
I suspect that we might actually start selling some records with these artists in about 10 years. Some the people who invested, they're a little tight-because it's a lot of money to start up a company.
