Djs And People In The Street Know

The Majors, They Have To Control The Distribution, The Record Outlets, The Radio And, In Some Cases, Even The Venues. And Downloading And Pirating Have Also Put Pressure On The Majors.

When I Was Recording From '70 To '82, I Always Played Piano And Laid The Tracks Down. But I Used To Talk To The Other Musicians While The Track Was Playing.

Artists Don't Always Know. Almost Every Song I Ever Recorded That Was A Hit At The Majors That The Promotional People Picked I Didn't Think It Would Be A Hit. I Was Wrong Every Time!

Back In The Day, I Used To Be In The Studio Recording 20 Hours A Day. And That Was All Of The Time. I Still Record A Lot Of Hours, But I Don't Go As Long As I Used To.

I've Been Sampled So Much And I'm Glad It's Happened, It's A Great Compliment.
