I Always Felt I Never Chose Music,

In New York, I Was Excited About The Music In New York Because The Only Music That I Was More Or Less Involved With In The South Was Either Country And Western Or Hillbilly Music As We Used To Call It When I Was A Kid And, Ah, Gospel. There Was No, There Was No In Between. And When I Got To New York All The Other Musics That's In The World Just Came Into My Head Whether It Was The Classics, Jazz, I Never Knew What Jazz Was About All, Had Heard Anything About Jazz.

I Do A Lot Of Vegas Work And Work With The Comedians.

I Always Felt I Never Chose Music, It Chose Me.

If You Just Concentrate On What You're Doing And Allow Yourself To Actually Enjoy And Let Your Feelings Come Out, Whatever The Tempos, Whatever The Rhythms, Whatever The Songs, 9 Out Of 10 Times It Will Work.

During Those Times Like In My Early Years As A Writer I Could Actually Write A Song In Ten Minutes Because All Of A Sudden A Song Is Writing Itself, I'm Just Putting Down Words. It Just Seem Each Line That You Put Down Flows With The Other Ones. It's Like Writing A Love Letter You Don't Think About It, It's Something From The Heart.
