Beck Quotes
When I got out of high school, I was in a blues band.

And that's what I wanted to be, principally: a guitar player.

Age Quotes
I really consider myself fortunate to have been of age during the musical revolution that came in the form of the Beatles. People don't realize that previous to the Beatles, there really was no such thing as an album artist. People made singles. Then they would put a bunch of those singles together and call it an album. And that was it.

Highly Quotes

And I made a record for myself just so I could have an outlet for my musical ideas.

Expand Quotes

They haven't completely given up on music and are willing to have somebody mediate new things that are happening in music to them.
