In my view a jazz musician is a great musician.

I've been a massive obsessive about jazz singers all my life.

Jazz music creates so many phenomenal figures.

I still love the whole history of jazz. The old things sound better than ever.

I'm a jazz musician, and I really wanted to not miss an opportunity to have the full connection to jazz.

Jazz radio is not very friendly to pop singers who decide to make a jazz record. But a lot of people have been. A lot of the people I've talked to like the record.

I love music, and a lot of it. Jazz is probably on the top with guys like Miles Davis. But I even enjoy music from the '60s and '70s.

I've always loved jazz.

Man, I just feel so fortunate to be a jazz musician at all. I have a hard time thinking of it any other way. It's such a fulfilling vocation. I love it.
