When I went to school, it was really just to immerse myself in listening to, studying, and making music. Dan Deacon
That's what music is to me. Like, stuff that I really like to play loud. And I've got my quiet CDs, too, that I listen to around the house, but if you can't go there, then... Everyone gets so upset with me, I can't win. Liz Phair
I listened to Kelley's record with pleasure. Great to hear real music with respect for the righteous roots. Her singing is outstanding - no frills, down to the bone and intense. Jerry Wexler
I want to communicate through my music. If you want to know Geri Halliwell listen to my album: it tells you more about me than a documentary ever could. Geri Halliwell
Mick Taylor quote: "I had to learn chord shapes. I bought books with chord charts...."
I had to learn chord shapes. I bought books with chord charts. I used to listen to all kinds of pop music. Mick Taylor
With Frat House, at times I needed to make music that would reflect what these fraternity brothers might actually listen to, but still keep it within the realm of a score; it still had to lead the viewer through the scene, or just help create the mood. James S. Coleman
