Iovine quote on Madge, VH

QUOTE OF THE DAY: “They're great artists. And they made really good albums, both of them. I heard both records before we made the deal and I was really honored that they wanted to be on Interscope—stunned, to be honest. I didn't know either of them well. I know Eddie and Madonna a little bit. Guy Oseary is an incredible guy and one of the coolest people I’ve ever met in the business. The opportunity was there and the people at Live Nation were really supportive. Nowadays, everybody goes label shopping, and these people were, like, ‘I want to work with Interscope.” So I said, “yes, great!... I think their potential is as good as anybody that's out there. These are great artists that made great records.” —Jimmy Iovine, on the signing of Madonna and Van Halen, interviewed by Shirley Halperin in The Hollywood Reporter. (2/9a)
