you were friends, too. >> yes, and when i was in vegas the same as frank sinatra and elvis presley, i do that, tom. we leave that to frank. he said "we." we leave that to frank. he said, don't go there. i said, but i like it. he said, yeah, but don't record it. don't do it. you stick with me. >> rose: listen to what i'm saying. >> yeah. and when i would see frank sinatra, he would say, forget that rock and roll, you're a great jazz singer, you could really get into some jazz. i said, well, i like doing it all, to be honest with you. so i was in a position where frank sinatra was fright pull me one way and elvis was trying to pull me another and i thought, what a position to be in, being pulled by two of the greatest singers ever. >> rose: what was it about sinatra? >> i think it was the tone of his voice. he had a demanding tone and i he was a very good singer. i learned to appreciate frank sinatra later on because rock and roll in the '50s hit me hard. when that came in, i thought all that other stuff is old fashioned, you know what i mean? but when you get older and you realize more

but i knew him mostly from las vegas and mostly elvis presley and elvis was saying that we leave thet rock 'n' roll, and come back. >> and so you are going to be singing a song about elvis for us right now. >> yes. it is called "the elvis presley blues." >> here is sir tom jones. ♪ i was thinking that night about elvis ♪ ♪ the day that he died ♪ the day that he died ♪ i was thinking that night about elvis ♪ ♪ the day that he die d the day that he died ♪ ♪ just a country boy ♪ who combed his hair ♪ and put on a shirt that his mother made ♪ ♪ and he went on the air ♪ and he shook it like a chorus girl ♪ ♪ yeah, he shook it like a harlem queen ♪ ♪ he shook it like a midnight rambler baby ♪ ♪ like you never seen ♪ you never seen ♪ i was thinking that night about elvis ♪ ♪ the day that he died ♪ the day that he died ♪ i was thinking that night about elvis ♪ ♪ the day that he die d ♪ ♪ that day that he died ♪ hu he took it all out of black and white ♪ ♪ grabbed his wand in the other hand and he held on tight ♪ ♪ and he shook it like a hurricane ♪ ♪ yeah, he shook it like to make it break ♪

and the book paints very different picture of elvis presley. >> elvis was like everybody who recorded for sam. he was not an inspired amateur. he was driven by a musical ambition. a conscious creative artist. but the form that art was going to take had not become clear when he came in. but for sam it wasn't a question the person that he considered the most profound artist he ever record was howlen wolf who came in on a bad radio broadcast and listen to it i thought this is it, where the soul of man never dies. and that was what sam was interested in with all of his records. he wasn't interested in building a clogatalog. he wasn't interested in the money aspect. in particular. e liked money but. he was looking for individualism in the extreme. and with elvis he found somebody who had a voice that hadn't -- he hadn't found his voice yet but he heard something absolutely unique and sam wanted to draw out of you and whoever it was, us, anybody. what was in us whether or not we saw it in ourselves. >> i think you get a sense of how he felt music was a democracy. and he saw that talent. but

and he works with all of the musical greats, duke ellington, elvis presley. you know, what story did you wanna tell through this character? so my theme that i wanted to do, having been a musician myself, i know that there's a certain, certain relationships within a band, when you're in a band, even though you're not speaking, you're speaking musically. and everybody has a certain role to play in a band. you know, the drummer has to maybe keep the time steady. someone else gets to be the soloist and go off wild. someone else has to be the rhythm player and keep it real. and i realized that that's very much what life is like in all the other bands that you join. family, a workplace, school, army. everybody sorta has a role, you know. so i wanted to do a theme about, well, a musical book but, but show that how we all influence each other, whether you're in a band, of musicians or you're just in a band in life, you influence people that you come in contact with with your talents. and so frankie became sort of this great symbol of that because he is, as you pointe
