Original Message: If I can find them, there were a number of quotes illustrating the art of getting things wrong.
Some of the ones I remember:– Quote by Tchaikovsky: "I've just been playing through some of the music of that scoundrel Brahms. What a giftless bastard . . ." Quote by Decca (I think) executive on hearing the demo disc of a group calling themselves The Beatles: "We don't like their sound. Guitar groups are on the way out." Quote by a senior army officer standing on a parapet overlooking the Battle of Spotsylvania: "Don't worry, they couldn't hit a barn door at this dist. . ."
