+"Listen to this," I said, "and tell me why I like it so much."
-''"I didn't know anything about twelve-tone music then, but I liked the way it sounded. Since I didn't have any kind of formal training, it didn't make any difference to me if I was listening to [[Lightnin' Slim]], or a vocal group called [[The Jewels]] (who had a song out then called Angel in My Life), or [[Anton Webern|Webern]], or [[Edgard Varèse|Varèse]], or [[Igor Stravinsky|Stravinsky]]. To me it was all good music."''
+"Parallel fourths," he concluded.
-''"There were a few teachers in school who really helped me out. [[Mr. Kavelman]], the band instructor at [[Mission Bay High]], gave me the answer to one of the burning musical questions of my youth. I came to him one day with a copy of [[Angel In My Life|Angel in My Life]] -- my favorite R&B tune at the time. I couldn't understand why I loved that record so much, but I figured that, since he was a music teacher, maybe he knew."''
+He was the first person to tell me about twelve-tone music. It's not that he was a fan of it, but he did mention the fact that it existed, and I am grateful to him for that. I never would have heard [[Anton Webern|Webern]] if it hadn't been for him.
