"Back when we were first making records, you didn't just make the music, you put a great deal of energy into the way it looked, and every word that was written on the whole thing"

About this Quote

Ann Wilson's quote speaks to the value of the visual and written aspects of music. In the past, when records were initially being made, the music was not the only focus. Artists put a good deal of energy into the way the music looked, from the album cover art to the liner notes. Every word composed on the record was carefully chosen and crafted to develop a cohesive bundle that would attract listeners. This attention to information was important to the success of the record, as it helped to produce a special identity for the artist and their music. The visual and written aspects of the record were just as important as the music itself, and this is something that Ann Wilson and other artists of the time comprehended.
