Influences: "My creed for art in general is that it should enrich the soul; it should teach spirituality by showing a person a portion of himself that he would not discover otherwise . . . a part of yourself you never knew existed." - Bill Evans "Jazz is a very democratic musical form. It comes out of a communal experience. We take our respective instruments and collectively create a thing of beauty." - Max Roach Thelonious Monk, Charles Mingus, Ed Blackwell, Roy Haynes, Billy Higgins, Max Roach, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams, Philly Joe, Brian Blade, Paul Motion, Jack Dejohnette, Hamid Drake, Chico Hamilton. Miles, Trane, Bird, Ornette, Eric, Duke, Gil Evans, Bill Evans, Cannonball, Herbie, Wayne also. Hearing Keith Jarretts Koln Concert helped me understand improvisation. Seeing Anthony Braxton, Cecil Taylor, William Parker and Tony Oxley play together helped. Check these guys out. Jaleel Shaw, Mikel Avery, Soweto Kinch, Rory Simmons, Tom Harvie, Robert Glasper.
