Cymbals Quotes - Page 2

• Si hablo las lenguas de los hombres y de los ángeles, pero no soy simpático, no soy más que un gong que resuena o un címbalo que retiñe. Si tengo el don de profecía y puedo desentrañar todos los misterios y todo el conocimiento, y si tengo una fe que puede mover montañas, pero no soy simpático, no soy nada. Si doy todo lo que poseo a los pobres y entrego mi cuerpo a las llamas, pero no soy amable, no gano nada.

  Benjamin Carson

• Wesley Stace siempre ha sido el único escritor de ficción genuinamente dotado que además resulta ser una estrella del rock, pero Wonderkid es el libro que nació para escribir. Y si prefieres tus novelas descaradas, conmovedoras e hilarantes, como yo, has nacido para leerlo. Como un gran espectáculo, permanecerá en su memoria mucho después del último golpe de platillos y el último rasgueo.

• I had been composing just for myself, and people would say I played so orchestrally, and wondered if I thought about having someone write a piece for me for an orchestra. And I thought, I don't want someone else to write that. You know I finally had made an overhead chart of my drums and what pitches the cymbals and toms were tuned to, and what have you. And I started to compose just with what I had for my solo drumming.

• More than any other drummer, Ringo Starr changed my life. The impact and memory of that band on Ed Sullivan Show in 1964 will never leave me. I can still see Ringo in the back moving that beat with his whole body, his right hand swinging off his sock cymbal while his left hand pounds the snare. He was fantastic, but I think what got to me the most was his smile. I knew he was having the time of his life.

• If the church is what it should be, young people will be there. But they will not just 'be there' - they will be there with the blowing of horns and the clashing of high-sounding cymbals, and they will come dancing with flowers in their hair.

• Poetry is a whim of Nature in her lighter moods; it requires nothing but its own madness and, lacking that, it becomes a soundless cymbal, a belfry without a bell.

• Me gusta referirme al saxofón y tener un lick de guitarra en su lugar. Lo mismo con los platillos; tener los platillos y no tocar platillos.

• I grabbed my drummer's cymbal in my teeth just as he crashed down on it with his sticks-I blacked out. I was a punk in those days. It was in Seattle. I still have all my teeth too, it's amazing.

• When it comes to certain kind of rhythm things, particularly like shaker or tambourine tracks. I like the way I can really lock up with my own Hi Hat or Ride Cymbal beat. So a lot of times in recording I'll be asked -- or even volunteer -- to put a shaker or tambourine track on. Just to give it something extra. And it always works great. I hate it when I'm in the studio and I don't have any shakers or tambourines with me. I've been on a few dates when we didn't have anything and tried to improvise shakers out of some uncooked rice in soda cans. It sounded horrible.

• Quiero que la música destaque un poco más que muchas otras bandas. Todavía hay cosas en las que no uso el sombrero alto ni platillos crash. Es un sonido interesante porque no lo notas cuando no está, pero si estuviera, lo oirías.
