One of the greatest Americans who ever lived.

Not sure why, but I loved it.

I was blessed to see him live just once. I will never forget his powerful music, but what touched me deeply was his gentleness and generosity. It was an honor to meet him.

I am surprised by the lack of recs and comments here. Did I miss a previous post?
Edit: The Lounge has a few more comments, but still not enough to honor this great man.
