A tall, lean, man and flashy performer, he’s definitely one of a kind – a stylish dresser and self-professor whose vocal delivery and guitar stylings are rooted in the past, but his often humorous, occasionally self-depreciating delivery has a timeless appeal.
Jovial, pleasant and now in his mid-80s, his recording legacy isn’t anywhere near that of his peers – only nine albums at last count.
