Quotes by Preston Lauterbach (?)

“Interesting people in all times and places tend to do two things well—they straddle boundaries, and they bend public perception.”
― Preston Lauterbach, Beale Street Dynasty: Sex, Song, and the Struggle for the Soul of Memphis

“A grab bag of contemporary blues song titles includes “Lick It Before You Stick It,” “You Ain’t Cheatin’ by the Rules,” “I’ll Drink Your Bathwater, Baby,” “Everything I Like to Eat Starts with a ‘P,’” “If I Can’t Cut the Mustard (I Can Still Lick around the Jar),” “Your Dog’s about to Kill My Cat,” and “It Ain’t Cheatin’ until You Get Caught.”

“He and B.B. subtly conveyed messages of equality and integration. Elvis had nothing to gain for taking such a public stance.”
