From the back cover: Laying many days on one side to keep from bleeding to death, listening to the dying all around me. It seemed the death Angel walked the hallways. It was there I talked earnestly to God. In one of my darkest hours, Brother and Sister Gilbert Lamb came to visit me. The Doctors said they couldn't operate because of my condition. While they prayed, a voice spoke from the lips of the Sister Virgil, saying six words that seemed to flow warm and peacefully deep in my lungs. It didn't sound like a natural voice, "MY SON YOU WILL SING AGAIN".

Rubin goes on to say that he wrote "some of the songs on this recording" from his hospital bed.
