Quotes by Irwin Chusid  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Outsider music sometimes develops naturally. In other cases, it could be the product of damaged DNA, psychotic seizures, or alien abduction. Perhaps medical malpractice, incarceration, or simple drug-fry triggers its evolution. Maybe shrapnel in the head. Possession by the devil-or submission to Jesus. Chalk it up to communal upbringing or bad beer. There's no universal formula.”
Irwin Chusid, Songs in the Key of Z: The Curious Universe of Outsider Music
