Sax Quotes

Some songs are just going to be acoustic with just maybe some light background stuff going on and maybe violin or something like that. Or sax - I mean, I'm definitely having some sax. That's just what I love. It's going to be jazz-rock stuff. That's what I'm aiming for. Phillip Phillips
Now that I am much older, I have had a number of sax players tell me I was responsible for them playing sax. Some of them I have admired over the years. Clarence Clemons
Somewhere along the line Coltrane's soprano sax runs out of steam. Now it's McCoy Tyner's piano solo I hear, the left hand carving out a repetitious rhythm and the right layering on thick, forbidding chords. Like some mythic scene, the music portrays somebody's - a nameless, faceless somebody's - dim past, all the details laid out as clearly as entrails being dragged out of the darkness. Or at least that's how it sounds to me. The patient, repeating music ever so slowly breaks apart the real,... Haruki Murakami
Despite his title, the Secretary of the Interior was a shallow man. He was given to surfaces, not depths; to cortex, not medulla; to the puff, not the cream. He didn't understand the interior of anything: not the interior of a tenor sax solo, a painting or a poem; not the interior of an atom, a planet, a spider or his wife's body; not the interior, least of all, of his own heart and head. Tom Robbins
The intense desire to talk with someone, sharp as any pain; this was what people meant when they talked about love. Or rather; this was what Sax would acknowledge to be love. Just the super-heightened desire to share thoughts. That alone. Kim Stanley Robinson
I've never really played golf. With the sax, I learned technique well enough so that it feels like part of my body, and I just express myself. That's where I want to get in golf. Kenny G
I'd love to be a saxophonist. I don't know why, but I pretend I'm the saxophonist when I listen to music. I have about as much chance playing the sax as I do learning how to fly. Richard Price
Dick Dale quote: "I can play every instrument there is, every horn, I've played..."
I can play every instrument there is, every horn, I've played all the saxes and trumpets and everything and keyboards. Dick Dale
I've just been recording mostly acoustic stuff, drums, and sax, and electric guitar. I'm just still writing songs and what not. Phillip Phillips
Coleman Hawkins quote: "I made the tenor sax - there's nobody plays like me and I..."
I made the tenor sax - there's nobody plays like me and I don't play like anybody else. Coleman Hawkins
I take my job as a rock and roll sax player very seriously. To do it the way that I must do it, I must be in good condition. The better shape you're in, the harder you can rock. Clarence Clemons
As a horn player, the greatest compliment one can get is when a person comes to you and says, 'I heard this saxophone on the radio the other day and I knew it was you. I don't know the song, but I know it was you on sax.' Clarence Clemons
Tommy Chong quote: "No. Maceo played sax, didn't he, well they used to sit in."
No. Maceo played sax, didn't he, well they used to sit in. Tommy Chong
He used to have a tent show, a little tent show, and I thought I was going to get a job working one year on the tent show, but he closed it down and I never got to go out there, but anyway, he had a sax and played drums. Earl Scruggs
Boz Scaggs quote: "As far as other instrumentalists, I used to love mellow sax..."
As far as other instrumentalists, I used to love mellow sax players like Paul Desmond. I love piano. Boz Scaggs
