        I agree, not only was he a brilliant and unique Singer, Musician, but he was also an actor in quite a few films. I listened to him over the years and never failed to find myself tapping my feet and fingers while, when alone, singing along with him.
        Another Great that will never be replaced.

          A little known fact about him is that before he got famous he had to stump for a guitar lesson company. I remember him in advertisements singing the jingo "pickin Anda grinnin, hummin Anda strummin" aired on various small television stations. That would be back in 1970 or there abouts. :)

            Another wonderfully talented man, the likes of whom we won't see again.
