What I'm Trying to do With Music

There are, in my mind, no rules to music which makes it completely open to a man to either slaughter a song, or to make it a masterpiece; and I'm trying my very hardest to make it a masterpiece. Now, with great musicians by my side, I can;and I can have a good time doing it.
