    Can you guys post some of your favorite songs of his? I used to listen to him when I was younger but can't remember which songs I liked, figured today would be a good day to go back and enjoy his work.

    I seen him in a tiny a--- venue in Anchorage, talked to him before and after the show.
    I made it a point to go to his spot in Time Square every time I was in midtown Manhattan.

    Check out "Riding with the King" His joint album with Eric Clapton.

    Lucille and Trigger are two inanimate objects that are more important to music than 75% of professional musicians.
