Again, it's not the best argument or the best advertisement for his story, because most people aren't going to read a thousand-page book.

It's more letting the best music that really appeals to me at the time, the best songs that I find after many months and years of search and sifting through my collection, and asking radio people and journalists. It's really an ongoing search that's as much daunting as it is somewhat exciting.
