Well I've been asked that question recently and see the wonderful thing about jazz is where jazz comes from and why is the thing that answers when people think is jazz going to live, is it going to die? Jazz is one of the only art forms where people have the freedom of expression. And you don't have to say anything bad about anybody to do what you feel. You don't have to do anything that actually rubs anybody the wrong way to do what you feel. There's no language where you're saying anything that offends -- you don't offend anybody. You don't make anybody think that personally you're attacking them. It's the only thing that you can do that with. You can express your exact feelings, and somehow people from everywhere have experienced those same things that you're feeling. Jazz is one of the only things like that. So jazz is a music that comes from a very natural part of the human race in general. The thing that's different about it is that it doesn't allow any person or group to control it. That's one of the most dangerous things about it. It makes people free. And all the big countries that are like the countries that have strong political parties and all of that, that's frightening for that. Because the one thing they don't want is for a person to have their own opinion about things. Jazz gives you the chance to have your own opinion. And that's one of the really fantastic things about it. Even more than the music is that it gives you the chance to express how you're feeling and also say yeah, well he had the right to say what he feels too. You have the right to play the way that he plays just as much as I do. And that's what makes it wonderful is that all these different rights give you all these different possibilities and inspirations and all of that. So jazz will always exist. Because people have to, unless they finally just put everybody in the thing and just make them do whatever they want them to do forever, and even then there'll be somebody slipping around trying to play a blues chorus.
