In an interview, Taylor stated that some of his favorite jazz albums are solo drum recordings, and expressed an admiration for Jerome Cooper's The Unpredictability of Predictability and Milford Graves' Grand Unification[3] Regarding the album title, he commented: "All of the major religions share the same morals but yet we need to believe only our 'myth' is the one that's real and the morals that we think are associated with that myth are the only morals that are important... We take everybody else's myths and morals for granted, yet it is this collective of myths and morals that define who and what we are as a whole."[3]
