 | | The problem, I think, in many cases is that you find these musicians when they are 18 or 20 years old but 10 years later you can't locate them. |
 | | To show how jazz musicians don't receive their due respect, most of my buddies and friends have left Los Angeles--Charles Mingus, Dexter Gordon, Chico Hamilton, Ernie Royal, Frank Morgan, the Cheatham's, Sweets Edison, Britt Woodman, Jerome Richardson who is from Oakland, but stayed in Los Angeles for a while, Richard Wyands, and Eric Dolphy. |
 | | Give us musicians who are 4, 5, and 6 years old, allow us to enhance that knowledge in junior high, high school, and junior college and we can turn out accomplished jazz musicians who will bring with them audiences. |
