Three Wishes
When the Baroness inquired of Ira Jackson what his three wishes were and he replied:
-
-
“My wishes have nothing to do with my music, directly. This has puzzled me all my life. I wish I could make a trip through the entire universe. I’d like to find the key to the univeerse, how it all started, what it is really. What is this? That’s be my first wish.”
-
“And then, the second, I… since I have to live on this planet, I wish there was peace here. That’s about all for the second wish. ”
- “I just wish I could use all of my mind, all of my potential I’m working on that anyway. Like one works on scales, you know? You can practice using it. That’s what it would be.”
