Was? He still is talented, though he’s not using electric instruments anymore…
He’s got some great albums that have just great vibes even though they’re not regarded as classics or hard to find. His stuff from the late 60s and early 70s is generally worth picking up.
nice catch on the wrong tense, i’ll change that.
His music is totally on point but I’m sorry to say the man in person is a cheap little d!ckhead with an ego larger than the Sears tower.
