‘I’ll play this and you play that’ (he said to the army band cornet player pointing to the cornet and then his drums after he had asked ‘What shall I play then?’)
I said 'Play anything you like and I'll drum with it'. He said 'But I can't do that'. And I said 'But you can just blow a note, any note, and I'll play this and you play that'." --John Stevens
