Seef AnamGUEST

Seef AnamGUEST

Emanuel HarroldGUEST
So by the time Gregory gets in the mix of singing, we're like, oh, we know exactly how to accommodate and how to... just wrap our musical prowess around his delivery.
Emanuel HarroldGUEST
You know, it's more sensitive because we know, oh, this is what this needs more to like, I need to be me and I'm not going to sacrifice all my incredible Max Rose transcriptions, Tony Williams, Chris Dave, you know, all of this.
Emanuel HarroldGUEST
I'm going to make, I can't diminish no, but like you have to accommodate and without losing yourself, make those be the subtleties, but making what he needs be the primary thing is how we, we speak and how we also,

Bruce HornsbyGUEST
So we did that.
