John Haley Sims Quotes

«I think one of the best things you can do, no matter what you play, is to take up piano. Music is based on chord changes and harmonies, and you can get 'em more out of an instrument like piano, where you can hear all the notes at once.»
«Even now, at my age, I still get hungry after a while, if I don't play for a week or so. It's nice to play again, you know. Sometimes I go two weeks without playing. But I think that can be good for you, too, if you play professionally all the time. A little time off won't hurt you. It kind of refreshes you. But I still get that feeling that I'd like to blow again.»
«You can't just play something new every night. But you never play it the same way twice, and you can still get inspired on it.»
«Playing jazz has been my whole life, from the age of ten. It's the only thing I know.»
«I feel equally at home in large or small bands. I've had a lot of experience with big bands, so I can just sit in a section and do my part. Although I like small bands better. There's more freedom - especially if you're the leader. You can play the tune you want and the tempo you want.»
