I just came from Aspen, Colorado and they had fifteen kids I played for and they all played horns.

I played with Sam Lay, Jimmy Reed, Big Walter Horton, Big Moose Walker, and all those guys.

I had always dreamed of living in Chapel Hill. When I was a college student at Hollins University in Virginia, I came down to Chapel Hill for summer school and just loved it.

Colorado State's personnel is a little different than when we played them last. (Freddy) Robinson is really helping them. He has stepped up the last four of five games. They have gotten a lot better in the half court defensively. Their size can cause us problems.

We've played in Colorado before. The first couple of minutes, you have to get up and down the floor and get your breath.

Secretly I knew I had been transformed, moved by the revelation that human beings create art, that to be an artist was to see what others could not.
