Bass Quote by Bill Crow
“I found a guy in the Bronx who had an old plywood Kay bass that he wanted $75 for. He held it for me, and I gave him a few dollars every time I could scrape some extra money together. Meanwhile I borrowed or rented basses for jam sessions and paying jobs. It was a great thrill when I finally took possession of my Kay.”
![“I was the kind of entrepreneur that never really felt I made it. When Mike Olefield's "Tubular Bells" [Virgin Records' first release] sold 8 or 10 million copies, I suppose, at age 19, I could've possibly retired on the money. Instead, I immediately pushed the boat and took that risk again.” quote by Richard Branson](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/433/richard-branson-256_age_i-was-the-kind-of-entrepreneur-that-neve_90171.jpg)
![“We sailed to Italy on the Andrea Doria, a year before it sank, and Zoot (Sims) and I played a lot of ping-pong on deck during that trip. Zoot sparked that [Gerry Mulligan's] sextet in an extraordinary way, soloing with joyous abandon and infusing the ensemble parts with his special brand of swing.” quote by Bill Crow](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/fd3/bill-crow-56420_abandon_we-sailed-to-italy-on-the-andrea-doria-a_903947.jpg)
