'...I was part of the house band at Basin Street South, in the Roxbury part of Boston...was playing Hammond organ a lot. It was a three-piece group...we backed people like Dionne Warwick, Tammi Terrell—who you guys know as Tammi Terrell, but her name was Tammi Montgomery back then...' — Bernie Worrell 

'...Warwick still takes the risks, she's still a gospel singer at heart, going where the spirit moves her.'
