As a child, with a divorced mom , she told us that he was her boyfriend when will go see him in the movies at the drive-in back in the 60s. I enjoy his music. In the ghetto as one of my favorite songs.

Good morning Christopher to answer your question there are some songs that I like and I like his gospel song his stage performance however was ridiculous and his acting was just as bad. But in all respect his music was okay not as good as Patsy Cline or Johnny Cash but there are some songs that I've really liked. Thank you Christopher and have a wonderful day.

At first I thought you were talking about Elvis Costello. HA HA

Meh😏

Meh..
I grew up with him, we all did.
The Music, the movies, etc..
I remember my Aunts all crying because he was dead.
Didn't affect me either way.
I think he stole far too much from Black Culture,and gave far too little credit for it.
That's Alright was written by Arthur Crudup, a black man.
I think he gets far too much credit that Chuck Berry, etc should get instead.
But he was an alright musician.
Growing up in Poor Mississippi, black culture will rub off on you.
