More quotes by Ritchie Blackmore
I however don't go to clubs to show off and to be seen, and certainly not to make statements. I just want to be able to quietly watch a band.
Ritchie Blackmore
I'm very moved by Renaissance music, but I still love to play hard rock - though only if it's sophisticated and has some thought behind it.
Ritchie Blackmore
I don't put myself on Jeff Beck's level, but I can relate to him when he says he'd rather be working on his car collection than playing the guitar.
Ritchie Blackmore
I like leaping around on stage as long as it's done with class. None of this jumping up in the air and doing the splits
Ritchie Blackmore
I can imagine that Rod Stewart likes giving autographs because he's pure showbusiness.
Ritchie Blackmore
In my early days, I never used finger vibrato at all. I originally carved my reputation as one of the 'fast' guitar players.
Ritchie Blackmore
I can turn on some jazz guitarist, and he won't do a thing for me, if he's not playing electrically. But Jeff Beck's great to listen to.
Ritchie Blackmore
I don't play by those rules I'm my own worst enemy sometimes. There's something in me that has to go against the grain. You know, I don't like to be a dead fish, swimming with all the other dead fish, I like to go upstream sometimes, against the flow.
Ritchie Blackmore
Those record companies don't know what's happening at all.
Ritchie Blackmore
I don't use the twang bar anymore. It's become too popular.
Ritchie Blackmore
I was impressed by Hendrix. His attitude was brilliant. Even the way he walked was amazing.
Ritchie Blackmore
If you can play well in the studio, you can play well on stage.
Ritchie Blackmore
The cello is such a melancholy instrument, such an isolated, miserable instrument.
Ritchie Blackmore
I was impressed by Hendrix. Not so much by his playing, as his attitude - he wasn't a great player, but everything else about him was brilliant.
Ritchie Blackmore
Stevie Ray Vaughan was very intense. Maybe that's what caught everybody's attention. As a player, he didn't do anything amazing.
Ritchie Blackmore
Playing a Fender is an art itself. They're always going out of tune.
Ritchie Blackmore
I have never met one person who likes Grand Funk.
Ritchie Blackmore
When something is not good, it's bad. Period
Ritchie Blackmore
I can never remember what I do even in the studio.
Ritchie Blackmore
Johnny Winter is one of the best blues players in the world. He's very underrated.
