Record Business Quotes

I know the history of the record business so well because I followed Billie Holiday into the record studios. It was so primitive compared to the sophisticated business today. Tony Bennett
Skitch Henderson quote: "I recorded with Sinatra, but the recording business is a very..."
I recorded with Sinatra, but the recording business is a very strange strata right now. Skitch Henderson
I guess that my life has been a series of flukes in the record business. The first thing I ever did was the biggest record that I'll ever have. Alex Chilton

Norman Granz quote: "My juices needed restoring. I needed a sabbatical from the..."
My juices needed restoring. I needed a sabbatical from the record business. Norman Granz
In my career, people in the record business have been rockin' in the same ol' boat. They all crooks - I'll say it clear and loud - especially the big ones. John Lee Hooker
He asked my girlfriend if we could come over and sing some of the songs that we had written, which we did. After he heard the songs, he said that he knew someone in the record business by the name of Bob Shad. Phil Harris
The record business is dangerous to the health of bands and individuals, which is something I'm just now learning. But it's not dangerous in any of the ways people think; it's not that they try to make you compromise your art. That's not the problem. T-Bone Burnett
Everything around a writer, or musician in the record business, probably everything in all the United States or in all of western civilization, is about competition. T-Bone Burnett
But now I realize that this record business really needs me. No one else is trying to take a chance or do something different. Erykah Badu
Herb Alpert quote: "You know, the record business is much different than being..."
You know, the record business is much different than being artist on stage. Herb Alpert
When I first came to New York I was a dancer, and a French record label offered me a recording contract and I had to go to Paris to do it. So I went there and that's how I really got into the music business. But I didn't like what I was doing when I got there, so I left, and I never did a record there. Madonna Ciccone
We were not given any statistics as to how many records were pressed on the blue label. I used to ask Bob Shad how we were going to get paid from record sales and what I got for an answer was not to worry about the business end of the deal. Phil Harris
This is a very screwed-up business. Record labels don't sign a lot of bands these days. We just want to find a home and stay there and make records and do our thing and not have to look over our shoulder. Andy Taylor
Actually, I have another record I made with them in 1976, but I've had such a bad experience with record companies, because I keep my head so much in music and not in business. Ornette Coleman
