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

Robbie Robertson
For years after 'The Last Waltz,' I got all kinds of silly movie offers - or, maybe, not silly, but parts that are not my calling lots of offers to play some wonderful boyfriend.
Robbie Robertson
Record making is an extraordinary experience.
Robbie Robertson
Music should never be harmless.
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
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
Say a prayer for the lost generation, who spin the wheel out of desperation.
Robbie Robertson
Lord please save his soul, he was the king of rock and roll.
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
