Steve Cropper American Quotations

My favorite moment of the whole thing was when John Belushi suggested that I get a hold of all the blues records I could so I could research the music.

Lorne finally said, Do the Blues Brothers thing. The response was amazing. People went nuts.

I am a very lucky guy. I've had a great career and I still get to do it and get to hang out with all these wonderful people. It's just a blast.

I went from the really crude way we had of recording in Memphis to working with the top engineers and technologies in Los Angeles.

I started getting calls to do sessions as a guitarist. I never thought I was that good of a guitarist, though I knew I could hold my own.

They had been doing their Jake and Elwood Blues thing as a warm-up for the audience before the show, and the audiences loved it.

I believe in technology going forward. I do like to work with an engineer, but I know how to run Pro Tools, and I have a system in my own studio.
