Ron McClure Quotes

I met Colomby, Wadenius, Bargeron at a church in NYC. It was a jam session for some function at Reverend Ginsel's church I think. We played jazz. I told Bobby that if they ever needed a bass player to call me. I knew Jules Colomby, Bobby's brother, from the New School where we took Hal Overton's class together. Jules had gotten me with Thelonious Monk in 1972. Bobby was always a lover of jazz, and I think he thought that having people like Joe Henderson, Tony Klatka, Larry Willis and even me would make the music more credible. I heard what Joe wrote for the band. It never came out, but it was incredible.

I'm back to my original plan. I take one day at a time. I don't have any illusions about fame and fortune, and a healthy respect for those of us who manage not only to survive, but to thrive in the music World. Ornette Coleman put it best: "There is a big difference between the World of Music and the Business of Music."
