“Plain blunt people may be a little afraid of formal music. But I have lived to regret that failure. Every man [or woman], barbarian or civilised, should play at least one musical instrument. And have a trade: cobbling or carpentry or whatever.”

“No world is rock real. As a certain poet in Dublin once said to me when, as a young journalist, I was emerging one enchanted evening, from a reception in a fashion-modelling agency, and had marvelled to him about the unreality, or it seemed to me to be, of the world in which those beautiful creations pirouetted.
No world, the poet said sadly, is rock real.”
