“Revolution ain't nothing but an extent of evolution; Evolution is a fact of nature. So when old folks tell me that they don't understand hip hop and the music is too loud, well I guess it means you're not supposed to be in there.” WellsMeanFactsRevolutionEvolutionMusic IsFolksHip HopHipsSupposed To BeLoudHops Author:Dick Gregory
“The French Revolution gave us three... powerful ideas, or concepts - liberty, equality and fraternity. But these ideas... are not only right in themselves, but they are so because they come in the proper order. You cannot have equality without liberty, and you certainly cannot have fraternity without equality. The importance of this I learnt from music, because music evolves in time, and therefore the order inevitably determines the content.” IdeasOrderThreePowerfulLibertyRevolutionMusic IsConceptsImportanceDetermineEvolveFraternityFrench Revolution Author:Daniel Barenboim
“I think that the revolution in music is over, and what's left is a mop-up action. It's a matter of the news getting out to everybody else. I think that the important changes have already happened, changes in consciousness. It's mostly a matter of everything else catching up to that. Everything is traditionally slow - much faster than it ever has been on earth but still far, far too slow.” ThinkingImportantActionEarthConsciousnessRevolutionMusic Is Author:Jerry Garcia
“The idea of a rock band to me is the ultimate in subversion, in leading the charge to revolution. My fave part of music is that it cuts to the chase and goes right to the id.” CuttingRevolutionMusic IsUltimate Author:Eddie Pepitone
“Indie music is 'it' now. It's kind of a revolution to the music: 1980s, 1990s music was getting very sanitized; they were complying with the music industry. Music was getting more and more dead in a way. Now, because of the social climate that's very severe, the artists are compelled to start being real. It's really great that indie music is now.” WayKindRealArtistSocialRevolutionIndustryMusic IsClimateBeing RealSevereReally GreatCompelledMusic IndustryComplyingIndie Music Author:Yoko Ono
