“By the way, I got a Grammy, which was a big thrill.” — Marian McPartland Quote

By the way, I got a Grammy, which was a big thrill.

It's awful to have to, but I've started thinking about that, you know. 86. I'm thinking, well, maybe I might make it to 90. At least I'd like to have my brains.

I have a West Coast rhythm section and a New York rhythm section. I've got them spread out all over the place.

I love to play in the different keys like B or F sharp, or keys that most people don't play in, because they have a better resonance or something. I'm really not fond of F and C. I just stay away from those if I can.

Well it's because the record companies are pumping away with their commercial stuff. I think it's a shame.

I liked getting the Grammy more than not getting it.

I want every Grammy.

A Grammy is something that can never get taken away. Win or lose, you have to say 'Grammy-nominated.'

I'm not going to lie: I'd love to win a Grammy.

It's an honor to win a Grammy, of course.
