Jools Holland's Quotes
- On being awarded the OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) I am tremendously honoured to received this award and proud that the art of booge-ing has been officially recognised.
- He (Ringo Starr) is one of the greats. I've played with him and he can not only do the boom-splat pretty well but as soon as you start to boogie he locks into that. I can see why The Beatles snapped him up. He invented a load of stuff and is one of the most important drummers in history.
- Almost every group that is a success - The Beatles, Stones (The Rolling Stones), Oasis, Squeeze - they all start off with a drummer they have to sack and get another one in. You can get away with not being the best bassist or guitar player but the drummer has to be absolutely bang on it.
- I think there's a view that only ghosts, lunatics and people on the sofa want to watch music programmes.
- When I started on The Tube (1982), I realised I asked too many questions. Then I read this book by Commander Burt of Scotland Yard, who was the person who interrogated Nazi war criminals and got confessions out of all of them. His secret was to relax them and then say absolutely nothing. The person was so desperate to unburden themselves they just started talking.
