"As I was growing up, I did a lot of talent shows. I won fifteen Sunday nights straight in a series of talent shows in Macon. I showed up the sixteenth night, and they wouldn't let me go on any more." - Otis Redding, lost this day in 1967.
"The blues is like a planet. It's an enormous topic. You can't ignore the impact that it has had and continues to have on the whole musical culture. It's a tree that everyone is swinging from.

"Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most." - Ozzy Osbourne, born this day in 1948.

"When people believe in boundaries, they become part of them." - Don Cherry, born this day in 1936.
"Grace is what matters in anything - especially life, especially growth, tragedy, pain, love, death. That's a quality that I admire very greatly.
