Famous quotes containing the word record:

    Bob freed your mind the way Elvis freed your body. He showed us that just because music was innately physical did not mean that it was anti-intellectual. He had the vision and the talent to make a pop record that contained the whole world.
    Bruce Springsteen (b. 1949)
