Greg Lake

“The greatest music is made for love, not for money.”

“It's a very strange thing, to be in a place where you can sell a million records and everyone knows your name, but you're not really sure who you are.”

“You don't make a record for critics. You make it for people.”

“Art is the last bastion of what is truly human.”

“I got into rock and roll to piss my parents off.”

“There's a normality in contradictions.”

“The thing about being in a band, it's a real compromise.”

“I have a love of gear and you are constantly trying to get the best sound you can.”

“Songwriting is a very strange art. It's a bit like a black art.”

“To me, the great joy of writing is discovering. We all think we have a story to tell, but we don't really know what that story is until we start telling it.”

“I think people are frightened of the unknown, and music is the key to that door.”
