Other bands gave us lip service, but when it came down to it they kind of backed off. That was a little disheartening. But I respect them. Thats their business. – Mike McCready
Ive never had a relationship with a record executive. I always went to the record company by someone that liked my playing. Then they would get fired, and Id be left with the record company. And then – because they got fired – the record company wouldnt do anything for me. – Ornette Coleman
