Steve Winwood Zitate

All through the kind of late '80s and '90s, every A&R record company man was saying, 'Now what we want is another record like 'Back in the High Life.' And, of course, that's not the way to make music at all. That's the tail wagging the dog.

Deutsche Übersetzung

In den späten 80er und 90er Jahren sagte jeder Mann der A & R-Plattenfirma: 'Jetzt wollen wir eine weitere Platte wie' Back in the High Life '. Und natürlich ist das überhaupt nicht der Weg Musik zu machen. Das ist der Schwanz, der den Hund wedelt.

I love doing third albums. A group makes its first album, and then the record company rushes them into the studio to make their second album. After that, they go, 'Whoa, wait a second.' They get a little more confident. They step back and say, 'Okay, now we're gonna do it.'

Sometimes when I have an idea, and I say, 'Okay, let's - it will be great, maybe, if I sing in English, a couple of songs.' Now, the record company and everybody's like, 'No way, you have to sing in Spanish.' And that's, you know, really good for me.

It's so hard to pick a 'single.' I always want it to be whatever my favorite tune is, but often the record company and the person whose job it is to take it to radio have different ideas.

I kind of remember a friend of mine saying, like, you guys should make a rap record. You know, because we were already making punk records. We were a punk band. And I kind of thought, that's crazy.

I really went back through a lot of the dark corridors of my life in this. I wanted people to know who I am based on my music, not on what they read in the tabloids.

Lisa Marie Presley

A lot of record company people, even though they're our age, want to be perceived as young hip guys, and they're hurting the business.

John Mellencamp

And looking at today's music scene, I think it's cool that there are a lot of consumers and fans not limited by what radio and the record companies tell them to buy.

Juice Newton

There's this thing called compulsory licensing law that allows artists through the record companies to take your music at will without your permission.

Prince

There's a guy at the record company who's 30, and he says, I would not listen to these songs except in this context. Somehow the recording process, the arrangements, make it more accessible.
