"You see, man, 'Prez' has the technical anxieties of a money-making musician, he's the only one who's well dressed, see him grow worried when he blows a clinker, but the leader, that cool cat, tells him not to worry and just blow and blow--the mere sound and serious exuberance of the music is all he cares about. He's an artist. He's teaching young 'Prez' the boxer. Now the others dig!!"------Jack Kerouac "On the Road" "...under the sky, under the heaven man, there is but one family. It just so happened man...that people are different." -------Bruce Lee
