“Just the other day I pulled out this old cassette of Ragged Glory and I popped it into my cassette player and I was digging it. They were just a great rock and roll band, one that presents the song ahead of everything else - there's no grand idea or concept behind it.” IdeasSongBehindsPlayerRocksBandGloryConceptsRock And RollDiggingRaggedCassettes Author:Krist Novoselic

“Some eschew wine for their religion; others just don't cotton to it. A slew of Americans consider wine a fancy-schmancy treat for special occasions. They do not understand the concept of daily wine.

“When I was a kid, a lot of my parents' friends were in the music business. In the late '60s and early '70s - all the way through the '70s, actually - a lot of the bands that were around had kids at a very young age. So they were all working on that concept way early on. And I figured if they can do it, I could do it, too.” IfsWayKidsAgeYoungParentCan DoBandLateConceptsYoung AgeMusic Business Author:Slash
“I think the whole concept behind lyrics is you better mean what you say, or you should like, become a storyteller. I mean, there's a lot of bands who are just storytellers, and then there are bands who actually have something valid to say. And the bands who have valid points are few and far between.” ThinkingShouldMeanWholeBehindsBandConceptsStoryteller Author:Kirk Hammett
“Caitlin Cary and I were always talking about X when we talked about whiskeytown, before it became an actual band. We like the concept of there being no real front person in X, yet this kind of switch up of vocals and really their sheer power, and their ability to sort of bastardise punk rock and midwetsren rock and even country into their own sound.” KindPersonsRealCountrySoundAbilityTalkingRocksFrontsBandConceptsPunkSheerVocalPunk Rock Author:Ryan Adams
“So by the time the 60s rolled in that became a huge art form in its own right with bands like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones and Hendrix doing total concept albums, same thing with Pink Floyd.” ArtFormHugeBandConceptsStonesAlbumsRollingRolling StonesHendrix Author:DJ Spooky
