About that time, I started playing with drummer '''Gary''' '''Husband''' on the side. At this time, I had already written a bunch of new music for myself. So I thought it was a golden opportunity to form my own group with '''Gary''' and Paul Carmicheal. But unfortunately it was a disaster from a financial point of view. We called the band “IOU” because more often than not, it would cost us more money to do the gig than what we normally got paid for doing it. That’s what happens when you want to play “esoteric bullshit,” which is what some people call what we do. | About that time, I started playing with drummer '''Gary''' '''Husband''' on the side.

Was that a natural process to lead you to finally going out on your own and leading your own project? | R.V.B. - In the late 70’s you hooked up with guys like Jean Luc Ponty and Tony Williams.
