The levels of the original recording made the talking difficult to hear, so I boosted the volume level a bit. It's still very unequal levels between the playing & talking but there's not much to be done about that.

38:01 "There is no system for playing jazz, there is no system for improvisation.. I don't care what anybody says, it's all in the ears"

"We want to learn things fast... me in particular, I'm always in a rush.. when I'm practising sometimes I feel like I'm not learning anything, but a month later, what it was I was practising, comes out... even though a lot of the time it seems I didn't learn it."

2:40 "When you have to think about what you're playing, you're not really playing".... reminds me of Sonny Rollins' often quoted "... You can't think and play at the same time..."

Thanks for this wonderful memorial. It’s wonderful to have had Mike so open to everybody. I had a chance of meeting him in his dressing room after performing; such a nice guy, open and ready to exchange comments and experience

Che fortuna che hanno avuto questi ragazzi , porca miseria ! Comunque poco da dire veramente , un musicista di un altro pianeta , in pochi arrivano e sono arrivati a questa consapevolezza musicale. (Quando si pensa a quello che si vuole suonare , in realtà non si sta suonando veramente). Penso che questa frase sia la nozione di musica(Nell'improvvisazione) più ampia che si possa mai ricevere.
