CDs, as a physical product, are almost finished. Basically it's going to be "Wide World of Online."

My mother is a singer, still performs today; she's a jazz singer.

If you think about it, the word "composing" or to compose, means to put together. So, you have to know what to put together and what to leave out.

The problem that I have is with the music business. For some reason it seems almost impossible to get anything, any music, released which includes improvisation or soloing.

It was very hard to get any records, so the only source for us to really hear what was happening was listening to the Voice of America. We would be taping all the broadcast and then sharing the tapes and talking about it.

Maybe there'll be new bits of music that will start showing up. You know? Like what happened in the 60s. Everything just broke wide open. Music started getting connected between Jazz and Rock and Pop. Everything was wide open, there was much more freedom. Hopefully something like that will happen again.
