Man…THIS is what you call family!! I can’t believe they all got up so early for me! ((:0))…Anyway, today was TRULY a special day, because I had the incredible honor of becoming the 1st composer to have his or her hand & footprints enshrined at The Chinese Theatre. I’ll never forget living in Seattle at 410 22nd Ave., & one of my best friends, Charlie Taylor (C.T.) lived just a few blocks away at 153 18th Ave. We used to meet up, spend our last 11 cents to go see a movie at the local theater, & every time, I’d say “C.T. I’m gonna write music for the movies one day.” So, I studied it all, because I loved it & knew the house sounds of every major studio like the back of my hand…I’m talkin’ about Al Newman at Fox, Victor Young at Paramount, Stanley Wilson at R.K.O…you name it. At that time, it was just a dream I had as a young kid, but then the great Sidney Lumet believed in me & gave me a chance to score my first American film, “The Pawnbroker”, in 1963, after having received countless rejections from other filmmakers because I was a “black man.” So, having my hand & footprints cemented next to many of my friends & idols I’ve looked up to, was more than I could’ve ever dreamed of. As the first composer, I want to say that I share this recognition with all of my fellow composers, dear friends, family, & colleagues, both past & present, who have helped me get here today. I’m talking about Henry Mancini, Nadia Boulanger, Benny Carter, Maya Angelou, Alfred Newman, Jerry Goldsmith, Lalo Schifrin, John Williams, Alan & Marilyn Bergman, Sydney Pollack, Richard Brooks, Norman Jewison, Sidney Lumet, Steven Spielberg, & everyone else I’ve had the honor of working with…U know who U are. And, to all the rugrats out there…I want to personally tell you right now, that if you can see it, you can BE it! You will 100% run into obstacles along the way, but all that means you gotta do, is jump over ‘em & hightail it on down the road U want to go. So, from the bottom of my heart & soul, I want to say…THANK-Q!!
