Taj Mahal Quotes

“I always say about my music: I made whole albums, not one song and then filled [the rest] up with some garbage.” 
Henry St. Clair Fredericks 

“As a young person, coming up for me to really be able to develop my music, you had to pretty much go to a record company and fight through their idea of topical music.”
Henry St. Clair Fredericks 

“And then if you collect all of that powerful positive African-American tradition, make room for Latin energy, make room for other cultures, it’s an exciting and intoxicating mix. Try to make something out of yourself in this life, not complain at somebody else that you didn’t reach your potential — that’s what the Caribbean music does. It puts you in touch with your roots with what’s really valuable.”
Taj Mahal
