More quotes by Jerry Harrison
"I've become increasingly confidant in following intuitions ahead of thoughts as I produce more records."
"I think we could have done a lot more great music, so I was disappointed that we didn't continue making records and touring, but it's hard to argue with 10 good years."
"Some artists want a producer to be a kind of svengali - someone who actually creates a sound for them."
"I think that technology has both introduced new sounds but also allowed an increasingly painterly approach to recording music as you can now paint over what you've done and more and more refine an existing performance."
"But when you're beginning, you should try to focus on something you love and your own way of doing things."
