My band, Miles Long, is a jazz-funk spoken word band. There's jazz sensibilities, but I'm a bass player, so I'm very much into the head-bobbing vibe with sophisticated lyrics.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner

People ask me to describe how I play, and the most obvious answer is that I'm a jazz influenced guitar player. But I'm not a jazz guitar player. Wes Montgomery was a jazz guitarist, Joe Pass was a jazz guitarist (laughs).

Larry Carlton

There were situations in my career where I played much better than another player in my position, but that player had a better name in terms of commercial appeal.

Ryan Babel

If a jazz player is really playing, the classical player will have to respect him.

Wes Montgomery

With experience, you improve. I'm a better player now, more complete than I was when I was player of the year.

Eden Hazard

I wouldn't call myself a jazz player or a blues player.

Dickey Betts

I was a better hockey player than I was a baseball player.

Jarome Iginla

The lousy guitar player in any band is the bass player.

Jimmy Iovine

Lars Ulrich is not a jazz drummer, but he grew up listening to jazz. Why? Because his father, Torben - an incredible tennis player - loved jazz. Jazz musicians used to stay at their house.

Robert Trujillo

I was considered as a jazz man rather than as a blues player. There were no blues players-you played one sort of jazz of another sort of jazz.

Alexis Korner

I've been in a band, so I understand the politics. Sometimes the bass player doesn't like what the guitar player is doing, and you have to sort of even that out.

Ric Ocasek

There's a bit of a myth that you pre-suppose every European player is better than every English player.

Sean Dyche

I like Jaco Pastorius' 'Portrait of Tracy.' He was this bass player who played jazz fusion. He was the dopest bass player who ever lived.

Ty Dolla Sign

Anybody who's a guitar player that's spent that time with another guitar player, there's nothing better than that.

John Frusciante

Introvert conversations are like jazz. Each player gets to solo for a nice stretch before the other player comes in and does his solo.

Laurie Helgoe

Every player should look to build on the previous season and do everything they can to make themselves a better player than they were the previous year.
