David, this was a wonderful tribute to a music legend. Though he hailed from Canada, he was a world treasure. He joined poetry to music like few have ever done and will be remembered for his writing and his performances emphasizing his one of a kind vocals. Thanks for sharing. Beautiful.

I did not realize he has passed until I saw your piece. He was one of my favs and I grew up playing guitar somewhat because of him.
