"It was a great jam session – five or six of us fishing for those spontaneous magic moments that turn into songs. Jim and I had talked a bunch, but never had a chance to play together. I watched him for a while from across the room and ended up standing next to him. I was amazed at what a complete musician he was. His playing was effortless and always exactly what was needed – nothing more, nothing less.
It’s rare and very special to realize that you are on the same wavelength with another musician – no words needed."
