Quotes

'Clive Davis, Line 2, calling for Mr. Frey … .' Nah, that's not what this is. This is been a journey for me. And it's not done yet. And it's going to influence, I'm sure, all the music I make after this. I have a lot of good things in my ear.
Los Angeles Times

I think he's the Clive Davis of his time
Columbus Ledger-Enquirer (Georgia)

For me personally he produced Arista's fifteenth anniversary show for CBS, he produced our twenty-fifth anniversary
