You know...I'm not a music person but I knew of him and I know he was popular. I decided to watch the re-run, yesterday, of Oprah Winfrey's interview with him a long time ago. It was quite enlightening. He seemed, in person, quite shy but on stage he was wild. He also seemed very talented and when she asked him what he wanted people to remember about himself he said his music. That said a lot to me.
