When I left the Tony Williams Lifetime, when I was still in New York, I had the chance to work and record with Sheila Jordan. We made a record called Confirmation, with Roswell Rudd, Beaver Harris, Cameron Brown and Norman Marnell. Sheila really taught me so much about learning to trust oneself in the spirit of creating. She encouraged me to take chances, and really helped me getting my creative feet planted in terra firma. Whenever she comes to the West Coast, we work together. Sheila continues to inspire whomever she touches, wherever she is. I love her madly. Check out this inspirational video, done by Bret Primack.
