• I learned an invaluable lesson from a kid in Argentina when we were playing Buenos Aires in 2002. I came out of the hotel and this 16-year-old-boy asked me to sign his copy of my Six Wives of Henry VIII album. As I was signing it I asked him 'what does a 16 year-old like about this old music?' and he looked at me, quite hurt, and said, 'it might be old to you, Mr Wakeman, but I only heard it for the first time last week. When you hear something for the first time, it's new.' I've never forgotten that.

• In my second year of Harvard Divinity School, where I was studying to be a minister like my father, I met a guy named Robert Cox, who had been the editor of the Buenos Aires Herald during the Dirty War in Argentina. Bob used to print the names of those who had been disappeared the day before, above the fold in his newspaper. It was a kind of an awakening to me to see what great journalism can and should do.

• I sustained an injury by singing with the flu during the second performance of Andrea Chenier in Buenos Aires. I was very sick, with chills and sweats, but against my better judgement I let them talk me into singing. Of course I gave the performance everything I had and my voice was hurt. It was scary at first, but fortunately there was no permanent damage. I just had to be patient and wait for the voice to return. It took six weeks of physical recuperation and it took time to recover my confidence as well.

• News at Work es una vívida mirada al interior de la colisión entre el periodismo impreso y los medios electrónicos. Basándose en un estrecho acceso a las principales organizaciones de noticias de Buenos Aires, Boczkowski documenta cómo el periodismo contemporáneo está atrapado en las garras de la emulación; esta espiral de imitación exacerbada aún más por los medios de noticias globales y su intensificación de la homogeneización. El retrato de esta transformación de las noticias es a la vez fascinante y profundamente preocupante, y está garantizado que provocará el debate.
