My dad's sense of humor was direct and sometimes surreal - his quick wit is well known amongst our family and friends. He raised me on Spike Jones records and W.C. Fields movies, and his sense of humor fell somewhere in between.
Tony Visconti

Each of my records has a different focus, a different theme.
Mark Edwards

You know, we have a long history of covering different periods of this band's development with a live record... a sort of live thing that would be done for three or four records, and that was the intention with this particular package.
Alex Lifeson

George Washington understood that the Bible is the place where God's records of right and wrong are kept.
Randall Terry

It really is no different in the way that we make records and shoot music videos. I don't think of the movie as being a great leap out of my current profession.
Wayne Coyne

I am just glad that I can take the music to the people who want to hear it. I love my audiences. I am deeply indebted to them for giving me the chance to sing my concerts, make records, and do what I love. Whatever people call it, it is great to have a voice!
Judy Collins

But some great records are are being made with today's technology and there are still great artists among us. Likewise there are artists today who are so reliant on modern technology, they wouldn't have emerged when recording was more organic.
Tony Visconti

Only a certain number of people go to a store over the period of a year. When a person sees my record on the shelf, it eliminates someone else's record from being sold. It's about continuing to try to find new ways to sell records.
Roy Ayers

The sports page records people's accomplishments, the front page usually records nothing, but man's failures.
Barbara Walters

Being in a rock band is about touring. It's about writing songs and it's about making records but it's also about taking a wonderful smile onto that stage and making the people feel good about themselves.
James Young

HAG Records, is a company that I've owned. I've had a couple of gospel releases on it. We developed a pretty good distribution setup there and we do have something to use in case they don't want to sign us.
Merle Haggard

When some guy shows up with a shopping bag full of records and CD's and wants me to sign every one plus fifteen pieces of blank paper I wonder what the hell is he doing with all of that?
Jimmy Carl Black

The Hollies, after I left in 1968, had the audacity, the gall, to have three number one records after I left. Thanks a lot, guys.
Graham Nash

It became a question of do I want to be on a label where it could take three years to put out a record instead of putting out three records over the same period of time on my own.
Matthew Sweet

Most of those takes were one take. I made those records in three minutes. I didn't have time to get nervous or scared the first time I sang it. It was all 'live' and I enjoyed it so much.
Bobby Vinton

Elvis deserves a lot of credit for bringing the blues to middle America, not the Vegas stuff. The early stuff, The Sun records, and the first few RCA records. He was wonderful, he had the power, the drive, and he was so dedicated to his music.
Peter Tork

It is not that I don't like contemporary country music because I do. I love it. I have recorded a lot and have had great success recording records that have not been very traditional country records.
Vince Gill

Records have images. There are wet records and dry records. And big records.
Art Garfunkel

I don't think we have very good records about what they were thinking except, as I pointed out earlier today, that they did invent our political system.
David R. Brower

No one really gets rich doing this. A couple people do, Black Sabbath does. We don't sell any records anymore.
Thurston Moore
