Spoke with John C Reilly about the Great American Songbook, love and the key to civilization.

I had the privilege of speaking with Steve Cropper about his GRAMMY-nominated album Friendlytown & @StaxRecords years. Cropper spun yarn about the hardest song he's ever played, Otis Redding's studio schedule, and why he used to carry Chapstick to sessions.
