“In a lot of groups, you can change a musician, and it doesn't mean any...” — Robbie Robertson Quote

“In a lot of groups, you can change a musician, and it doesn't mean anything.”

“At a young age I thought, 'Wow, that fiddle thing, that's pretty cool. That mandolin is great. These drums, I like these drums... ' They were Indian drums. And I was saying, 'But that guitar. That guitar. Girls are going to like that guitar.'”

“When I was 14 years old, I had the opportunity to meet Buddy Holly. I asked him how he got that big, powerful sound out of his guitar amp. He said, 'I blew a speaker and decided not to get it fixed.'”

“I've traveled the world in one of the best groups ever. I'm 42.”

“Three groups spend other people's money: children, thieves, politicians. All three need supervision.”

“I am very slow to warm. I've always been sort of a loner. I didn't play team sports. I am better one-on-one than in big groups.”
