[Many of the outtakes heard on the Rhino boxed set would have been lost to the fire, were it not for a reel-to-reel dub copy of two early Charles rehearsal sessions made for Wexler by late Atlantic producer/recording engineer Tom Dowd, shortly before the fire.] I kept it for years... Then I made a cassette copy, and then a CD.

The thing about Wilson was he was just a great screamer, but he did it with control. James Brown would scream and it was a scream, but Wilson could scream notes. His voice was powerful, like a buzz saw, but it wasn't ever out of his control. It was always melodic. - Jerry Wexler
