I was totally into jazz in my teens.

I cut myself off from the mainstream of jazz. It stood me in good stead later on, as a musician.

Jazz was my first love.

And I used to listen to a lot of jazz.

The first time I listened to jazz was when I was 8.

I've always loved jazz.

After I exhausted the blues thing, I got into jazz.

Growing up, I was very much interested in jazz music.

I think I was supposed to play jazz.

Jazz was more of a tool for me to use to enhance my musicality.
