world going-through-changes stills
Everybody's going through changes. No one knows what's going on. Everybody changes places, but the world still carries on.
guitar phrases use
I use a lot more chords than most organists and I'm careful to phrase them with the guitar.
real guitar play
The only time it dominates is during a solo, or when we play a low blues and I put figures in behind Eric's vocals. There's never any real problem fitting guitar and organ together.
emotional fantasy fantastic
Classical music's ability to translate emotional themes is fantastic.
song sometimes crosses
I quite like childlike songs, which sometimes cross over.
demo felt marking music score script sent
When the script was written, it was sent to me with asterisks marking where he felt a song would be appropriate. Before the film was shot, the score was written. I made a demo of it, so they lived with the music as they were making the film.
success congratulations father
The one phrase you can use is that success has a thousand fathers, and failure is an orphan.
artist missionary-zeal mass
We had a missionary zeal about blues music, and I felt, particularly, that Mickie Most was attempting to homogenize, sweeten, and make it accessible for the mass market. Which is understandable if you're the producer, but aggravating if you're the artist.
stupid silly thinking
I think it's like everything else; one shouldn't dig too deeply. It's silly to say that with a journalist, but sometimes there is not a truth to be found.
