Ah, memories. When I was in high school/college I wandered into a few beer joints where he was playing--not to see him but because that was where all the girls in town were. Then he rocketed into a career and later (I think) got very heavily into Jesus.
I seem to recall his cover of
I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry playing on the jukebox every morning at the dairy bar where we used to hang out before high school.
