Maria Schneider: "Trust your enthusiasm"
I first came to learn of and love Maria Schneider's work when she collaborated with David Bowie on "Sue (Or in a Season of Crime)" and this interview, from Slate's WORKING podcast, is a fantastic primer on her work and her processes. "Trust your enthusiasm": I'm keeping that one with me...
That I got to see Bowie on what would be his last tour remains one of the high points of my life. Though I wasn't at this particular show, he and the incomparable Gail Ann Dorsey similarly blew the roof off the (then) Fleet Center with “Under Pressure” when I saw him.
