The memory of things gone is important to a jazz musician.
Louis Armstrong
I can turn on some jazz guitarist, and he won't do a thing for me, if he's not playing electrically. But Jeff Beck's great to listen to.
Ritchie Blackmore
If you have to ask what jazz is, you'll never know.
Louis Armstrong
The blues and jazz will live forever... So will the Delta and the Big Easy.
Jack Nicholson
I'm a freak, everything has to be totally flat when I play. Ed Will, my jazz teacher, set up everything completely flat, and then you'd tilt your snare drum away from you, so I do that too. So my snare tilts away from me.
Travis Barker
I was really small when jazz broke through in England and I can still remember sneaking off to the living room to listen to it on the radio - much to my parent's disapproval.
Jeff Beck
The point of jazz is, you do something and then you go on.
Van Morrison
