Book excerpt: If there is any question about where this boy comes from, you just tell them to let the boy sing! This is part of a message that Gladys Presley sent to John's mom about where John came from, making reference to the fact that Elvis Presley is his daddy. The first night I met John in 2004, I could not believe the depth of his talent, and the emotion he brings to life in his songs. Our friendship became close over the next years. In January of 2010, we were putting the finishing touches on our first guitar that we were building in my garage. On that winter night, John finally answered my question about where his talent came from. Before then he had always deflected the question. This night he told me, and it all made sense. John said that he was thinking about going public with this shocking claim. If I would do it with him, he would give the music business one more try. We had no idea what that conversation would lead to?a journey that would lead across the country and back. Four years later, that journey is ending, and a whole new one is beginning. Welcome to a look inside the story of a most uncommon man, with a most common name: John Smith.
