The first ever authorized biography of the unjustly forgotten 'Father of Soul Music'. A notable R'n'B chart success in his day, his songs are now better known through covers, such as Peggy Lee's version of "Fever." Mystery surrounds his death in prison - attributed by some to a beating by a guard. However he died - he was gone at the age of 30, stilling one of the most important voices in black music.
