The more the ensemble, the duet or the forty piece orchestra, plays as one person, the more it makes people dance, because you're back in the womb. You feel mom's heartbeat. It makes you move. It reminds you of that warm, groovy space you were in.
John DensmoreBass players and drummers are brothers in the basement cooking up the groove that makes people move.
John DensmoreWhy is there such passion for any sort of gossipy, provocative sensual stuff? It sells!
John DensmoreIf you're playing live, I like to think of the ensemble, whether it's the duet or a forty piece orchestra, as one person. And the entire audience, whether it's twelve people or twelve thousand at Madison Square Garden, is the other person. The two of you are going to dance together tonight.
