I suppose not. But it's an awful lot of fun trying to dissect all the  
mystery around him. And he makes a good shill for it too. I mean,  
what a character.

Ya know something funny. I NEVER tire of listening to his stuff. I  
think his big plus was that his vocals were good. I liked his playing  
and vocal styles and the way he delivered them. He knew just where to  
place the harp, and his timing was impeccable.
