Book Description:
'For Your Precious Love' 'Only the Strong Survive' those familiar classics are Jerry Butler at his most soulful. But there's much more to this music pioneer's story. Here is a portrait of a remarkable performer, as well as an up close and personal look at the world of rhythm and blues. Filled with intimate anecdotes about such R&B legends as Otis Redding and Sam Cook, Butler's compelling, sometimes hilarious, narrative is told against the backdrop of 1960s America. Only the Strong Survive chronicles the 'Iceman's' journey from rural Mississipi to Chicago, and the founding and eventual breakup of the legendary Impressions vocal group. Soul pioneer Jerry Butler's story doesn't end there: currently serving his fourth term on the Cook County Board of Commissioners, Butler also gives us a glimpse inside the world of Chicago politics including stories of Harold Washington and Louis Farrakhan. Only the Strong Survive is entertaining, moving, riveting like Jerry Butler himself.
