And then the intro is rip off. I think that's sad in a way. It crushed the thought of it being original and "new thinking" musically. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kennywtelejazz 1,073 Posted June 30, 2020 (edited) I guess Ole John Williams is working off some of these type of Ideas... What does the quote ‘Good artists copy, great artists steal’ mean? A good artist simply copies another person’s art, while a great artist selectively takes or steals elements from other artists or sources and then collaborates them in a creative manner that makes the art completely unique. Jean-Luc Godard said, “It’s not where you take things from – it’s where you take things to.” Full disclosure ...... I copied those two sentences myself from some place on line... What ! Now I'm being told to stop ..it's time for a commercial advertisement from our sponsor ... Kenny Edited June 30, 2020 by kennywtelejazz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kenny My favorite comment: "I hope the guitar Steve used is over 18 years old." 😆 That violinist tho... 😍 (Edit: Apparently, her name is Ann Marie Calhoun!)
