Guy Lombardo Quotes

The sweetest music this side of heaven.

Many a man wishes he were strong enough to tear a telephone book in half-especially if he has a teenage daughter.

On his place in the American pop culture: "It`s very simple. Music happened, bands happened, and we happened."

On his strict-tempo arrangements that aroused the ire of some swing fans: "I don`t play for acrobats."

(On the unchanging nature of his music) It`s very easy to get away from the thing that made you successful, but the important thing is to keep on doing what people tell you they like. Don`t fool the public.
