Favorite John Abercrombie Quotes

1. "If you listen to a lot of music, it gradually seeps into your consciousness or your unconsciousness and comes out in your music." ~ John Abercrombie
2. "Classical musicians do this all the time. They want perfection. So they piece things together. Eight bars of this and six bars of that. Glenn Gould said that with a recording he wanted to make perfect versions of pieces." ~ John Abercrombie
3. "Every time I listen back to solos of mine I'll hear something I like and then another phrase that I can't stand. You have to live with what you play. And the recording medium puts that on us. When I play live gigs I don't think so much like that." ~ John Abercrombie
4. "You're just sort of searching for this 'thing' and sometimes you get it and sometimes you don't. All music is imperfect, but in jazz since you're improvising, at least the way I play, I'm trying to follow my train of thought in a solo." ~ John Abercrombie
5. "I don't remember what was going through my mind, but what was going through my body was fear and terror. I had been on the road with Johnny and working gigs and playing a lot of the organ clubs." ~ John Abercrombie

Today's Quote

What's left of what your body was —once the girl with bare shoulder blades , giggling, once the girl galloping an imaginary horse, once the girl sleeping in her sequined red dress— was now ash in a jar. Grains of bone. But then, I knew it wasn't you anymore. You were somewhere more."
