What would account for the songs being less good
than they used to be?
The mentality of the
people making the music. Producers now are ignoring all the musical principles
of the previous generations. It’s a joke. That’s not the way it works: You’re
supposed to use everything from the past. If you know where you come from, it’s
easier to get where you’re going. You need to understand music to touch people
and become the soundtrack to their lives.
I’m trying to isolate what you specifically
believe the problem with modern pop is. It’s the lack of formal musical
knowledge on the part of the musicians?
Yes! And they don’t
even care they don’t have it.
Y para finalizar
se deja caer esta perla:
I can’t believe I
still get to be involved in things like this. I stopped drinking two years ago
and I feel like I’m 19 years old. I’ve never been so creative. I can’t tell
you, man — what a life!
Extensa y por
momentos abrumadora la entrevista al sin par Quincy Jones. Me da que sabe de lo
que habla.
Por cierto, tan sin par como simpar.
