I do consider his recordings of "Highway 61 Revisited," "Johnny B. Goode,"and "Rock and Roll Hootchi Coo"(sp?) to be among the best of these songs.

My impression is that he was not the most pleasant person to his public, but he sure could play the guitar. I also recommend "Prodigal Son," "Slippin and Slidin," "Miss Ann," among many others.

One of my all-time favourite actors. Class, clever and self-deprecating humour. Old school.
