Song Thinking Rocks

More From Wynton Marsalis

Rock and roll by its nature is sexual. so girls playing rock and roll is saying to the world, "we own our sexuality." i think that pop music is sort of about "you can do what you want to me" kind of energy, while rock and roll is "i'm going to do what i want to you" kind of energy.

My dad is a huge rock and roll lead guitar fan. i didn't even really know that until recently. everything has to have a guitar solo in it.

The sax solo as we know it today would not exist without gerry rafferty. his 1978 soft-rock classic 'baker street' has to be the 'ulysses' of rock & roll saxophone, giving the entire chorus over to raphael ravenscroft's sax solo, creating one of the seventies' most enduringly creepy sounds.

I like "rock, paper, scissors two-thirds." you know. "rock breaks scissors." "these scissors are bent. they're destroyed. i can't cut stuff. so i lose." "scissors cuts paper." "these are strips. this is not even paper. it's gonna take me forever to put this back together." "paper covers rock." "rock is fine. no structural damage to rock. rock can break through paper at any point. just say the word. paper sucks." there should be "rock, dynamite with a cutable wick, scissors."

I'm as strong, strong as i can be, but ooh ooh ooh, baby you leave me weak.

If they [plato and aristotle] wrote about politics it was as if to lay down rules for a madhouse. and if they pretended to treat it as something really important it was because they knew that the madmen they were talking to believed themselves to be kings and emperors. they humored these beliefs in order to calm down their madness with as little harm as possible.
