You always draw from your roots. I'm influenced by everything I hear and see, and that includes music today, but obviously I go back to my early influences: Stevie Wonder, Parliament, Earth, Wind & Fire, Ohio Players, Average White Band. Those kind of artists are what I look to. When I hear that stuff on the radio, I turn it up! ↗

The book grew out of the introduction I did for Brady's Gates of Janus. I knew that the writing in that introduction had a better than average chance of being read by people involved in Brady's life - parents of victims, police, Brady himself. ↗

The average music-lover hears only the production under prevailing conditions. ↗

To the average mind popular music would mean compositions vulgarly conceived and commonplace in their treatment. That is absolutely false. ↗

The average comedian is kind of an observer looking at everyday things that everyone could relate to and then trying to find the exaggeration in those things. ↗
