"You never hear me talking about flawed recordings. Instead what I talk about is how many I used to think were flawed, now come to life."

"That is why I have avoided buying Springsteen and the Stones, it is just too well known that their recording values suck."

"Which speaking of, a little birdie tells me there are some outstanding quality Rolling Stones albums, and Led Zeppelin. So I stand corrected on that. But not Bruce. Springsteen remains the King of Great Song, Bad Recording."
