Coming Through The Years, And Finding That

Coming Through The Years, And Finding That I Not Only Have Just The Fans Of My Day, But The Young Ones Of Today - That's What It Means, It Means It Was Worth All Of It.

[on Bebop Years] All I Did Was Sing 'how High The Moon.' It Seemed Like The Only Song I Ever Sang.

Music Is The Universal Language ... It Brings People Closer Together.

A Lot Of Singers Think All They Have To Do Is Exercise Their Tonsils To Get Ahead. They Refuse To Look For New Ideas And New Outlets, So They Fall By The Wayside... I'm Going To Try To Find Out The New Ideas Before The Others Do.

Nobody Else Even Approaches The Trumpet Like [sweets Edison] Does: Never Too Much And Always Plenty. He's The Greatest Trumpet Player To Play Along With Singers. He Exactly Knows How To Play With You, How To Answer You About What You Just Sang ... On Top Of That, He Has Some Great Sense Of Humor, Both As A Musician And As A Man. Every Time I See Him, I'm Laughing So Much. Sweets Is Impeccable And Incomparable.
