Rita Williams-Garcia Quote

I remember a time when smoke filled the house. Not coughing smoke but smoke from a woman’s smooth-voiced singing, with piano, bass, and drums. All together these sounds made smoke. Uncle Darnell would say, You can’t remember that. You were two. Three, maybe. But I do. I still see, hear, and feel bits and flashes. The sounds of musical smoke.
