Thanks to Juraj for finding this interview with Bill Frisell. Read the full interview here.

LP: You play with a diversity of musicians and are getting ready to collaborate with Sam Yahel and Brian Blade. What goes into consideration when determining whom you want to play with?
BF: I don’t know how I choose people to play with, but so much of it has to do with the person and the feel I get from being around them. Of course I want to play with great musicians, but there has to be a feeling. I can usually tell before we have played a note if it’s going to feel good when we play, just by what it feels like standing next to them. I met and played with Sam through Brian a couple of years ago. We played only one song for a benefit concert and it felt so good and I have been trying to figure out a way of how we could get together again. And Brian is one of those guys that is so open, giving, and everything he plays just makes you feel good. He’s just one of my favorite musicians and you can tell how much he loves it.
