I don't know how television or radio is going to survive without newspapers because that's where they get all their news. It's going to be hopeless.
I'm still heard on 1,500 radio stations across North America every day, about 220 million people a day in 150 countries.
As a new artist there's always outside influences trying to tell you how to make a song better for radio and how to do your hair.
I never got a stereo system until about 1969. It was only when I went to America in '68 and listened to FM radio; I really thought, 'Wow, there's something in this.'
I consider myself very lucky indeed to have had the career I have. I listen to the radio now and you can't tell artists apart.
I was inspired by the classic rock radio of the Seventies. They separated Chuck Berry and the Beatles from the Led Zeppelins and Bostons and Peter Framptons of the time. In many ways, classic rock became bigger than mainstream rock.
It's honestly every time that I'm doing something, and every time I visit a station and hear my song on the radio and people buying my stuff, I'm like 'Are you kidding me? This is insane!'
I suppose the reason I chose electrical engineering was because I had always been interested in electricity, involving myself in such projects as building radios from the time I was a child.
Yes and for two reasons: one, I couldn't find anything to imitate at the time, and secondly because what I heard on the radio didn't bear any resemblance to what I wanted to hear on the guitar.
I can tell you where I was when Kennedy was shot - which was in the common room at school. I heard about it on the old valve radio. At the time of Armstrong's landing, I was at university rehearsing a play.
I heard 'More Than A Feeling' for the first time when somebody came running into my office in the engineering department and said, 'Your song's on the radio in the drafting department!'
We won a contest at the teen fair in Vancouver and the first prize was a recording contract and we recorded at a radio station on the stairway, and we did a record and it got put out.
Daisy Werthan: It's 7:16! Boolie Werthan: You should have a job on the radio announcing the time.
Jack Lucas: [on the radio] I told you about these people. They're evil, Edwin. They must be stopped.
[a coded message to the Resistance, spoken in French] Radio Announcer: Wounds my heart with a monotonous languor.
Cesar: There's something more to this place. Our cells don't work. Neither does the T.V. or radio. We're isolated.
Social media is an information channel; it's like radio or TV... In Cisco, we made a lot of money on public protocol. I think the social media model replicates that protocol.
We are being entertained all the time - in the bathroom, on the train, in our beds. Sure, there is a smaller audience for theater. But we know from radio that entertainment never goes away, it just changes. And more power to it.
My first transistor radio was the heart of my gadget love today. It fit in my hand and brought me a world of music 24 / 7.
You have to be tough-skinned and willing to accept criticism, and at the same time, just try to do music that you like and you are proud of and not just whatever you think it's going to take to get you on the radio.
I would rather fall flat on my face than try to just make a quick dollar by making music that fits into the radio format right now. It does nothing for me.
