"As a label, you have to treat every group and every record as a unique entity. I think that that has been our success, rather than relying upon a fan base."
Success
"There are several books out on punk history, but I haven't read any of them. I was there."
History
"SST was formed to put out the first Black Flag record. Basically, there wasn't anyone else to do it. I felt that what I was doing with Black Flag was very worthwhile, and I wanted to get it out there."
First
"It took us two years to get our first real gig. That was a big dream. We ended up booking a lot of our own gigs and putting on a lot of our own shows. We were trying to get our actual music across, trying to make a connection there."

Music
"Punk rock really came out of N.Y. as a philosophy before the groups were ever recorded. I had a kind-of intellectual interest in the idea of creating a new scene that could be a grassroots thing."
Idea
"The English scene got more media attention with their emphasis on fashion, with the safety pins and all. There were some really good bands over there. The Sex Pistols were great."
Sex
"I didn't want to wait around for some business entity to come around and give me money and tell me what to do. We just started releasing records as best we could."
