The straight-ahead jazz, the ballads, the spiritual. It's a small offering of what's to come. All the cats on it were open to doing anything, to listening to my ideas. Well we are living in a world where openness is not always the highest priority. Being politically correct is often more important than being straight-up with people.
Free jazz has that honesty.
When you get down honestly with people it tends to break barriers that are considered taboo. So I think music that reflects that scares people. It brings you to your limits, exposes you. Yoe expose your soul to your audience. So they'll either turn away from it or embrace it with the utmost praise.
