Vince Gill

We all get caught up in the process, especially when you have a wave of success. But to me, being creative is not about rehashing everything you've done over and over. It's to continue to grow, continue to get better.

I made records in the past that are as traditional as any other country records that have been made, but at the same time the records have a contemporary slant on it too.

This is just strictly me wanting to make a record that is the real deal. It is all the stuff that I have learned and know that I remember. It's what I perceive as country music is about.

My last two records that I made were both quite pointed in one direction and I think I do my best stuff when it's all over the map, when there's a couple traditional things, a couple pretty rocking things.

It really does take a lot of time to make records, to be in the studio and do all that stuff.

A lot of people play to impress, but the really gifted ones play to move. That's the greatest point of ever doing this.

Image
So I didn't have anything to do with picking the songs, but I got to musically take them in places I thought might be interesting, so it was a real neat collaboration among the three of us.

Music is like having a conversation. All musicians inspire each other, and they're all geared to play something that matters.
Vince Gill
Image
It is not that I don't like contemporary country music because I do. I love it. I have recorded a lot and have had great success recording records that have not been very traditional country records.

There ain't no future in the past.

And from my place, and from the time that I went through my divorce, I also had my father pass away in the middle of all that. And it kind of made everything else just kind of like the back burner, you know.
Vince Gill
Image
When you lose people that are close to you it brings everything into focus, and the rest kind of gets put on the back burner.

Yes, the companionship is amazing. You know, you can get that physical attraction that happens is great, but then there's an awful lot of time and the rest of the day that you have to fill.

I never aspired to be up front. When I was a kid, I didn't ever look in the mirror with a hairbrush going, Hey, I'm Elvis!
