More quotes by Robbie Robertson
There's a bookstore in New York where you could buy scripts, and I got addicted to them because they were easy, quick reads and the pictures were so vivid.
Robbie Robertson
I haven't been to many music events where somebody was performing and it actually made me cry.
Robbie Robertson
When you make a record, your own record, and you don't even recognize it yourself, it's hard to think if anybody else is going to recognize.
Robbie Robertson
When I was playing with Bob Dylan in, like, 1966, I was, like, 20 years old.
Robbie Robertson
I play guitar quite a bit, because I'm always in search of something. I don't play to jam, but because I'm fishing. I'm looking for something, that I hope you can never find. If I do find it, I'm afraid I won't have a need to do this any more.
Robbie Robertson
I think, some countries, you have to be dead to have your picture on a stamp.
Robbie Robertson
Music should never be harmless.
Robbie Robertson
I'd always thought Cage's 'Root of an Unfocus' would be great in a movie.
Robbie Robertson
Give us the strength, give us the wisdom, and give us tomorrow.
Robbie Robertson
Some music is supposed to be disposable that's OK. A lot of music is fun for today, but it isn't supposed to be timeless it's supposed to be trendy.
Robbie Robertson
When I was younger, I thought I was too young to really be personal. I thought that what I was feeling and thinking might be half-baked.
Robbie Robertson
You fog the mind, you stir the soul.
Robbie Robertson
Say a prayer for the lost generation, who spin the wheel out of desperation.
Robbie Robertson
The rock concert experience for people was really pretty stupid, you know, at the time. People would go to concerts not with the idea of listening at all.
Robbie Robertson
It would be nice to abandon the verse-chorus-bridge structure completely, and make it so none of these things are definable...Make up new names for them. Instead of a bridge, you can call it a highway, or an overpass...Music should never be harmless.
Robbie Robertson
I wanted to develop a guitar style where phrases and lines get there just in the nick of time, like with Curtis Mayfield and Steve Cropper. Subtleties mean so much, and there is a stunning beauty in them.
Robbie Robertson
Lord please save his soul, he was the king of rock and roll.
Robbie Robertson
Bob Dylan is as influential as any artist that there has been.
Robbie Robertson
If I can play one note and make you cry, then that's better than those fancy dancers playing twenty notes.
Robbie Robertson
You don't stumble upon your heritage. It's there, just waiting to be explored and shared.
Robbie Robertson
