And yet another guilty pleasure. Did have the rockin' "Little Things" from 1965, but otherwise...fluff (that's often a *good thing* for me... ;) )

Although it's hard for me to imagine him in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, his body of work contains several records that made the Billboard Hot 100. That gives him a little more credibility than some of his contemporaries, but I think of him more as a country singer.

played with ROY ORBISON

soft sell?
