I remember my mother playing his records in the 60s and, of course, we never missed his TV show. I always loved his voice. I saw him live in 1978, but I was 21, and half the age of all the screaming, panty-throwing women in the audience. I was pretty grossed out by it all. Now I love him again. But I’ll never throw my panties.
