I started realizing that music is the one area where I've always let go. When that saxophone goes into my mouth, I get into a space where I never think about the notes I've already played or anticipate the notes ahead.
“I know that I'm never as good or bad as any single performance. I've never believed my critics or my worshippers, and I've always been able to leave the game at the arena.”
“Horrifying as it was to crack up in the public eye, it made me look at myself and fix it. People were exploitative; that's human nature.”
