Rahsaan Roland Kirk Quotes:

Ocupation: Multi-instrumentalist

Life: August 7, 1935 - December 5, 1977

Birthday: August 7

Death: December 5

You don't see the European classical musicians allowing the music of Bach, Brahms, or Beethoven to become extinct. That music has gone on for centuries and centuries. We have the same obligation. Why do we have to become so 'hip' that we can say, 'Bebop is square,' or "New Orleans is square'? This, to me, is a shame.
