Music is in the air it's my job to pull it out.

It's really easy to play harmonics, anyone can do it. It's another thing to be able to swing, to make to make a band swing, to create a groove. Harmonics ain't everything. Being able to play harmonics certainly does not make you a good bass player. Cleverness is no substitute for true awareness.

I'm not a star. I'm just backing up the cats.

A chimpanzee could learn what I do physically, but it goes way beyond that. When you play, you play life.

Music is the only thing keeping the planet together

All you've got to do is keep your ears open.
