A MAN is as ALIVE as he can COMMUNICATE.
To my ears, jazz SOUNDS better in WARM weather and after the SUN has GONE down. While I will listen to some of my favorite jazz records in cooler weather, it's the warmer nights that really make them COME alive. Something about those sounds and the heat of the night really makes it happen for me.
Art is about profundity. It's about CONNECTING to everything that it MEANS to be ALIVE, but you have to act.
