So now what?
And I wouldn't know what to play on
that. I mean, how to play on it, so I
just have to figure it out.
Yes.
That tune just came, I call it.
Yeah, it just felt like colors, you
know, like a color. This room is one of
the colors, just bright colors
and a rhythm and an energy,
you know, like when you're in a real good
mood. This is like a sunny, bright
blue day. And it seems like everything is
going right. That's what it seemed like
music felt like.
And that's the way it comes out.
You know, when I write tunes, it comes
out like that and then I have to learn
how to play them. And then later.
Yes.
No, not especially, but if
I had them around, I'm sure I would do
it, you know, it would be fun,
but not particularly.
But I think there's a lot that can be
done, you know, and I like to listen to
it sometimes.
Yeah,
yeah, right, I mean, there's so many
different things that can be done on the
rhythms that are in to lose to the
Willers, three different lines
and two of them are 11 and one
is nine.
But the rhythm inside the rhythm has
certain accents and so on.
And I never studied I mean, maybe if I
came up in, uh,
Greece or Africa or somewhere where they
had rhythms like that all the time, it
might be even faster, you know,
for us musicians if we had that in this
country. But I don't know what the
accents are, but I can hear them
automatically when I hear the tune.
So then I have to sit down and figure
what they are, you know, and figure out
what comes out of that, what other
rhythms that you would do on top of those
rhythms.
Yeah, I hear the whole thing.
Yes. But I can't do it.
It's technical and in interpretation,
yeah, both,
both.
It just seems to happen
now I'm trying to think if there was a
point where it didn't happen.
Yeah, I used to get high and drink
and all of that. Anything that you do to
expand your consciousness at the
beginning works
and then eventually you just fine
just by you wanting it to expand.
It expands, you know, and sometimes
you might do some other outward things to
begin. But eventually what happens is
it just keeps expanding and you don't
need anything. You just need you, you
know, and you just expand.
But if you're not expanding at the rate
that you want to, then I suggest, you
know, like there's books and stuff and
just being with people and listening
to music and so on.
Yes.
Sometimes there's a lot of similarity and
sometimes there's almost none,
you know.
You never know, you never know.
I mean, I found that out from some side
people, I never really noticed that.
But there was a
drummer that went with me to
Europe and we played for three weeks and
he came up after about the first week.
He just couldn't get anything right.
And he said, well, I just never played
with a band where every night they played
the music that it was never there
was no relation to what had gone on the
night before.
So, you know, I that's other people's
opinion. But I think that a lot of times
it turns out to be similar and then
sometimes it's very unsimilar.
It's just like it's more like a spiritual
thing, you know, like you generally feel
the same when you feel good.
But one day you wake up.
Sometimes you just feel totally
different.
Different ideas come and everything.
You never know what's going to happen.
Oh, um, yes, that
way up there.
I don't feel like my awareness usually
doesn't expand
by me going out, usually more
when I'm in.
You mean out like to a club or to
eat or whatever.
It's different, it really depends on
what's happening.
Uh, sometimes, uh, that goes
into a whole nother subject.
You know, sometimes you have friends and
they seem like the person that you know
best. And sometimes you go someplace
and you meet somebody that, you know, you
never saw before and they feel closer
than your friend did.
So it's hard.
That's a hard question to answer without
having two or three hours to talk about
it.
