Quintessential


Bob Quine 1942 - 2004

"Someday Quine will be recognized for the pivotal figure that he is on his instrument — he is the first guitarist to take the breakthroughs of early Lou Reed and James Williamson and work through them to a new, individual vocabulary, driven into odd places by obsessive attention to
'On The Corner' - era Miles Davis ."
(Lester Bangs)
