The Musical Song That Skimmed For

Gay was disappointed because what he wanted more than anything else was to get a white audience. After getting an R&B hit he knew he would have to do as so many other black entertainers had and play to black audiences for a long time before he crossed over. On the live album from that tour recorded at the Apollo you can hear gay still trying to find a balance between his desire to be a Sanatra tech crooner appealing to a white audience with Ray Charles interpolations. The result has him singing what kind of fool am I, the Anthony newly showed you but sticking in interpolations inspired by Ray Charles.
