Well, actually, I don't consider myself a jazz legend or anything.

My dad is a big jazz fan, and that was the reason I first got into jazz.

If I had to look at 'Now He Sings'... from outside myself, I see it as a natural part of the growth of the jazz culture, which I've always been so happy - honored, really - to be a small part of.

What I love about jazz is that it's full of legends, full of myths. It's an oral history because it started in New Orleans and Kansas City, under the radar.

Jazz music creates so many phenomenal figures.

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

In my view a jazz musician is a great musician.

I think Wes Montgomery is the greatest jazz guitarist that ever lived.
