"I was sixteen, I put some american dollars in an envelope and sent it over the sea. Two weeks later it arrived, I didn’t know music could sound that close. I followed his every move for years, bought every little strange seven inch and ‘tour only’ CD. I’m sitting here now with those records spread out across the floor. I never grew tired of Jason’s songs because they don’t belong to a time but rather a place. I don’t think I’ve ever heard music be so geographical. It’s not a place I’ve ever seen on a map, it’s a hut in a dark rainforest, a savannah in the sunset, a freeway with no traffic signs. A place no satellites has ever laid their eyes on but your GPS tells you, ‘you have reached your destination’."

Jens Lekman remembering Jason Molina, the songwriter behind Songs: Ohia and Magnolia Electric Co., days after he passed away.

“In 1981 I happened to see Joe Strummer – he was the singer for the punk rock band The Clash – on the tube. I saw him sitting on the other side of the seat, but I thought he was too private – he might get too angry – but I was trying to be brave, I went up to him and asked him ‘may I take a picture of you.’ he smiled and said ‘yes’, and I clicked several shots. 

Just before he got off the train he said to me, ‘You should take photos of whatever you want. That’s punk.’ ”  Herbie Yamaguchi
