he could be mute for hours, but in a moment a topic grabbed him, we wouldn't stop.

"In his formative jazz-playing years a possibly tripping audience member approached Liebezeit and said, "You must play monotonously." Thus directed, Liebezeit ventured into radical simplicity, with such dedication he once chased Can bassist Holger Czukay around the studio with an ax, insisting that he play fewer notes.
