This is something I wanted to do for over 20 years, ... From the time I first met J.W. Alexander, he drew an inspiring portrait of an individual you wouldn't know from the music alone.

I wanted to write the book as far inside as possible,

[Thus it was that Cooke began ascribing his writing credits to L.C., who would later turn over the money to Cooke.] It may have been unethical, ... But from Sam's point of view, it was adaptive compensation. He'd been taken advantage of because of his ignorance. He set up his label and publishing with the idea of not having him or his artists taken advantage of.

He believed he could do everything until the day he died.

When he went pop, he consciously bleached out the sound with 'You Send Me' [and others]. It was not accidental.

That really bothered him -- where it came from -- and also, he was afraid he had gone beyond his audience.

They looked up to him. Even Barbara -- she's still trying to understand Sam. And J.W. -- Sam was the person he'd liked to have been.

It's highly suggestive in various ways.

His father had taught him to never be taken advantage of or be disrespected, ... Songwriting and publishing were far more important for income than making records. It took Sam two minutes to recognize that the publishing deal he'd signed in 1957 was very disadvantageous to him.

[The song, based on an old gospel song, was] the fusion of all the elements that till then had simply failed to coalesce, ... It was the uninhibited, altogether abandoned sound of the church; it was the keening, ecstatic voicings by which the world has come to know Ray Charles best.

I was trying to tell as honest and true a story as I could, ... Really, the challenge is to portray the world the person lives in, and in the first volume it was an expanding world. You can see in 'Careless Love' how constricted Elvis' world becomes.

I thought a lot of people would dismiss the subject as trivial, ... and ... that regardless of what I achieved, the subject would be dismissed. I think I've been gratified more than anything. Whether people like the book or don't like the book, they treat the subject as worthy of discussion.

I think Elvis was dismissed because of his popularity,

It's like he gained a lot from his popularity, but he suffers a lot for it too,

I guess I thought of it as an American tragedy, ... It has all the elements -- the success is larger than life, the aspirations are larger than life, and the fall from grace is equally larger than life.
