Bob Reuter, St. Louis musician and long-time host of Bob's Scratchy Records on community radio station KDHX died in a tragic accident last week. He was 61.
We remember Bob's life, music and legacy through highlights of two previous interviews with Reuter: a and a.
Here are a sampling of colorful Bob Reuter quotes from the interviews:
On being a radio host - "If I do the show right I go into this trance...after the show I'm like what did I do? Did I kill somebody? What did I say?"
On Rock and Roll (reading from his memoir) - "Rock and roll is meant to involve loud volumes and small, sweaty rooms. It's sex, danger, joy, pain and repetition mixed with a certain amount of darkness and mystery."
On his photography - "I use a lot of grain. It looks like the picture is coming apart, kind of like I feel. It's kind of autobiographical."
