A book is a story for the mind. A song is a story for the soul.

Song is the pen of the soul.

In the depth of my soul there is a wordless song.

[It's a] natural process ... The result is essentially a great song-oriented white soul group with fully realized improvisational tendencies, closer to what Entertainment Weekly Magazine calls 'the scene's answer to Steely Dan.'

The buying of more books than one can read is nothing less than the soul reaching toward infinity...

When I get an idea for a song it would gel in my mind for weeks or months, and then one day just like that, I'll write it.
