• Pero yo hice la mía a través de una productora. Toda la música que hacía, se la daba a la productora. Luego la productora le daba el álbum a la discográfica. Solía hacer todos mis álbumes así. Era fantástico. Pero ahora, entiendan, nunca he planeado hacer nada con estas otras cintas. Las que salen a la venta, como la Virgin Ubiquity que tienes ahí, no iba a hacer nada con esa música. Un día, estaba hablando con el dueño de BBE en Inglaterra, y le dije que tenía algunas cintas y cosas que podrían interesarte, y se puso como loco.
