A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs Volume 2 Quotes

“Johnny Otis died in 2012, aged ninety, having achieved more than most of us could hope to if we lived five times that long, and having helped many more people to make the most of their talents. He died three days before the discovery of whom he was most proud, Etta James, and she overshadowed him in the obituaries, as he would have wanted.”
― Andrew Hickey, A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs Volume 2: From the Million Dollar Quartet to the Fab Four
