Hey, Ray,
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:07.129
this fool Joe Adams is trying
to fine me for being late.
00:00:07.421 --> 00:00:08.881
What time did you get here?
00:00:08.965 --> 00:00:12.969
What? Just now.
The band's still setting up.
00:00:13.552 --> 00:00:15.179
- Jeff don't ...
- Look, I'm not Jeff.
00:00:15.262 --> 00:00:17.999
That's a fact, Jack!
00:00:18.182 --> 00:00:20.851
Ray, you said the band was my thing.
00:00:20.935 --> 00:00:22.395
It is.
00:00:22.478 --> 00:00:25.147
Then, Fathead,
you go on back to rehearsal.
00:00:26.019 --> 00:00:27.525
Ray.
00:00:27.984 --> 00:00:30.403
Ray, you know how it is,
you've been there.
00:00:30.945 --> 00:00:33.028
Fathead, go on now.
Let me handle this.
00:00:33.364 --> 00:00:35.998
Fathead, go on now.
00:00:38.536 --> 00:00:40.621
You want to tell me what the hell
is going on, Ray?
00:00:40.705 --> 00:00:42.707
I'm not doing anything
I haven't been asked to.
00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:44.333
Ray's running a business.
00:00:44.417 --> 00:00:47.461
He shouldn't have to waste time
hearing why people were late.
00:00:47.545 --> 00:00:49.338
I'm not talking to you, Joe.
00:00:49.038 --> 00:00:51.132
I'm talking to Ray.
00:00:56.999 --> 00:00:59.997
Ray, now I know you think
I'm soft on the band,
00:00:59.999 --> 00:01:01.475
but those cats would do
whatever I ask.
00:01:01.559 --> 00:01:04.999
But If you come in here with this,
uh, "running a business" crap,
00:01:04.027 --> 00:01:06.001
you're gonna lose some good people.
I'm telling you, Ray.
00:01:06.999 --> 00:01:08.983
There are musicians waiting in
line to play with Ray Charles.
00:01:09.003 --> 00:01:11.902
Not for long,
once they get a taste of you.
00:01:12.999 --> 00:01:14.078
Ray, you're the leader, man.
Be one! Come on, now.
00:01:14.864 --> 00:01:16.866
You now what Jeff, I mean
things have changed.
00:01:16.907 --> 00:01:19.994
It ain't like the days when it was
seven of us on the Chitlin' Circuit.
00:01:20.998 --> 00:01:23.539
I mean, if you weren't busy building
a bowling alley, you'd seen that.
00:01:23.914 --> 00:01:25.075
So you know about that, huh?
00:01:26.208 --> 00:01:28.127
I know about everything.
00:01:28.753 --> 00:01:30.999
I'm just trying to figure out
how you did it.
00:01:30.001 --> 00:01:32.423
You think
I'm stealing from you, Ray?
00:01:32.506 --> 00:01:35.001
If the Shaw Agency is gonna give you
a cut of the 10% I'm given them.
