“There’s a bit in “Echoes” we call “the wind section” where it all falls apart, and then comes back in,’ explains Guy Pratt. ‘Some of the younger players, mentioning no names, couldn’t get their heads around it not being a set number of bars. It was like, “You have to feel it and know instinctively when to come back in.” David’s great line about that was, “The trouble with modern musicians is that they don’t know how to disintegrate.”
Mark Blake, Pigs Might Fly: The Inside Story of Pink Floyd

“It was an early example of the power of persuasion and unstinting belief that Mercury would apply to himself and his band mates in Queen. Nothing was impossible, he maintained, if you put your mind to it.”
Mark Blake, Freddie Mercury: A Kind of Magic

“There are people who say we should make room for younger bands. That’s not the way it works. They can make their own room.”
Mark Blake, Pigs Might Fly: The Inside Story of Pink Floyd
