Work on good prose has three steps: a musical stage when it is composed, an architectonic one when it is built, and a textile one when it is woven Picture Quote #1

It’s like a novelist writing far out things. If it makes a point and makes sense, then people like to read that. But if it’s off in left field and goes over the edge, you lose it. The same with musical talent, I think Picture Quote #1

The ear disapproves but tolerates certain musical pieces; transfer them into the domain of our nose, and we will be forced to flee Picture Quote #1

I always had a knack for improvisation. I can write down the notes I play, but never really had a proper academic musical background. I suppose I’m blessed and cursed by the fact I have that freedom Picture Quote #1

I’ve created several musical trends, really. That’s not because I’m so far out and fabulous. It’s because most bands have no ideas of their own. They’re so desperate they’ll grab at any old straw Picture Quote #1

I would love to do a musical. I would love that. I would have to find the right book, the right story, but some day I’m going to make one. I would really like to go off and direct a musical. That’s what I would really like to do when I grow up Picture Quote #1

My musical taste has always been wide. I started out as a folky before I moved on to blues and soul Picture Quote #1
