More From Herb Alpert
- "When I finish an album and I find myself listening to it in the car, because it makes me feel a certain way, that’s the time to try to let other people know about it."
- "I don’t think radio is selling records like they used to. They’d hawk the song and hawk the artist and you’d get so excited, you’d stop your car and go into the nearest record store."
- "I wake up in the morning, I do a little stretching exercises, pick up the horn and play."
More In Music
- "People are going deaf because music is played louder and louder, but because they’re going deaf, it has to be played louder still."― Milan Kundera
- "Music is an extraordinary vehicle for expressing emotion – very powerful emotions. That’s what draws millions of people towards it. And, um, I found myself always going for these darker places and – people identify with that."― Annie Lennox
- "I don’t feel a day older when it comes to my approach to music or what gets me off than when I was a teenager. I’ve always been into different kinds of stuff and when I play I like to play loud. I like my arm hairs to move and I like my body to vibrate ’cause I like the feel of it; I’m still a teenager at heart."― Eddie Van Halen
