    About this ebook

    Celebrating both the famous and the obscure from every genre of music—including classical, rock, Latin, country, blues, and hip-hop, The Little Red Book of Musician’s Wisdom offers a touching anecdote or pithy line for every musical occasion. Musicians, critics, DJs, and industry onlookers provide illuminating commentary on a wealth of topics:

    Singing, rehearsing, and performing
    Success, fame, and fortune
    Failure and rejection
    Music critics and industry bigwigs
    Love, passion, and sex
    Aging and death
    Humor and wit
    Religion and spirituality

    Individual sections pay particular homage to the words of Ron Carter, T. S. Monk, The Beatles, and Benny Golson. Musicians, music lovers, and those who love hearing from the talented and famous will savor this collection of provocative, mischievous, and profound words from musical personalities of the past and present.

    “Music is the divine way to tell beautiful, poetic things to the heart.”—Pablo Casals

    “No two people on earth are alike, and it’s got to be that way in music, or it isn’t music.”—Billie Holiday

    “Most of the times, once you’re out of the limelight is when you want to be in it.”—Tina Turner

    “The sign of a mature musician is knowing what not to play.”—Dizzy Gillespie
