My whole recording studio, tons of music, a lot of original scores that I can't ever get back, maybe 50 or 60 tunes I spent years working on -- all gone,

Music, I feel, must be emotional first and intellectual second.

It's all gone I saw on TV where my whole neighborhood is flooded out,

I get a real eerie feeling when I think about my neighbors and just all the people in New Orleans. I just hope that they are safe. It's a real emotional time for me now.

My house is definitely flooded. I saw it on the news. I've lost my car, my Cadillac, lost over $50,000 worth of instruments, lot of other priceless things like pictures, articles, press clippings, things like that.
