The jazz chord substitutions in a country song... that was another thing that bent people`s ears. I guess that my favorites are the unique ones. It`s not how fast you play. It`s that unique blending of different stuff I`m most proud of.
Since the big band started I`m just always swamped with movies and things. It certainly pays the bills and it`s very satisfying, because I get to write all these big charts and all this crazy music.
The songwriting has never really stepped forward from the `50`s.
