"This is the body of rock-and-roll, the bodily rhetoric of tiny increments necessary imperfections, and contingent community. And it has its virtues, because jazz only works if we’re trying to be free and are in fact, together Rock-and-roll works because we’re all a bunch of flakes. That’s something you can depend on, and a good thing too, because in the twentieth century, that’s all there is: jazz and rock-and-roll. The rest is term papers and advertising."

Dave Hickey, The Delicacy of Rock-And-Roll
