At first I was a little concerned that listeners would think I was having an identity crisis because of the variety ... but these tunes reflect all the sides of my personality. That's why the album is titled Flyin' the Koop. I was in the studio battling with myself about the tunes: 'Is this too weird, is this too straight-up, should I put them all together?' And then I figured that if you believe in the music, you've got to free yourself from inhibitions and limitations. If you're jumping up and down in the studio 'cause the music is so great, then screw it: You've got to fly the coop. -stanton moore
