Sorry about that; make that publisher Hill & Range, not RCA.

The story of Crudup waiting at the
RCA offices to sign and FINALLY get royalties for his RCA
recordings of the 1940s and '50s, only to find that RCA had
changed its mind about paying him is heartbreaking.
Crudup's story starts on page 27 of this link:

I saw him perform once at Michigan State University in the
very early 1970s, presented by the student organization
Mariah, which put on LOTS of great shows in the 1970s.

Okay, if you think so - that's a
matter of opinion and taste.
But within copyright law, Elvis should have paid royalties
to
Crudup. So as for the quote of Jackie Wilson, I
maintain that Crudup
probably would have disagreed.
