    He was great in the 70's and his music for Harold and Maude was great
    Very under rated.

    he did some great stuff and he did some shockingly bad stuff.

    the good stuff he did was really AMAZING. but at the same time, the bad stuff was pretty ****ing ****.

    Ah but some of the dodgier stuff is still very entertaining. Possibly not for the right reasons though. And there is usually a nice message in the song, even when it's terrible.

    I'm a fan since Thursday night.:P

    I've often heard the name, but didn't have a clue who he was. I had my first guitar lesson Thursday evening and the teacher played Moonshadow, so when he left I looked him up on YouTube and I fell in love.:pac:

    Peace Train is class, imo.
