Soulhider: A Novel

“I wrote many things for and with John. I know this is one assignment he'd rather I didn't have to take on. Although I had a close – head to head, arm to arm working relationship with John, that proximity never affected the fact that from the moment I met him, through all work, I remain his number one fan. He was a brilliant performer, writer, tactician, business strategist and most importantly, he was the only man that I could dance with. He was a great – a world class – emissary of American humor. John was a patriot, a resident of the most wide open, liberal society on earth, and he took full advantage of it. In come cases, real greatness gives license for real indulgence; whether it's as a reward, as therapy or as sanctuary. For as hard as John worked, there had to be an additional illicit thrill to make the effort all worthwhile. John was a nighthawk, true. But he was not an immoral individual. He was a good man, a kind man, a warm man, a hot man. What we are talking about here is a good man – and a bad boy. Johnny – you can be sure that I'll have my antennae out for the paranatural and the spiritual, and believe me, if there's any contact with him, I'll let you know.”

“John's [Belushi] death, and I learned when friends reach out to you you better get back to them quick because I missed a phone call from John. He left a message on my answering machine and I was at a period where I really didn't want to talk to him because he was being so uncompliant with what his wife wanted and with what we wanted, so I let a day go by and that day may have cost him his life. I let a day go by before responding and it was too late by the time I heard the message, he was gone. When your friends reach out to you get back to them pretty quick. That's the lesson right there. I live with that all the time. Now maybe it might not have occurred but I missed that phone call, I heard his message and didn't call him back and the next day it was too late."
