C'mon y'all. I've never met or known him but, In spite of anything negative anyone might say, this guy accomplished a lot of good things in his life. Like scoring (11) Top 40's in his career, a couple of Top Tens & held his own musically, through the last 50 years! Writing, performing alongside the likes of Roy Orbison, to having his original music covered by numerous well known artists from different musical genres; Vicky Carr, John Denver, Dolly Parton, Della Reese And Brenda Lee.., then he goes on to write, produce & score themes for iconic TV programs like Nightshade & his own children shows in which he wrote & performed all of the music! Followed by 'reinventing' himself into an obviously prolific painter who; I might safely say; produces fine art depictions, that easily compare to any in that of the Audubon Society! Now represented in (not just a few) Galleries & private art collections around the country, donating numerous items to charities for fund raising? Yeah, I'd say this man, has proven himself to be a significant force in the fine arts & music industry. So let's give credit, where credit is due & acknowledge that he is & has been, a talented individual all his life. His attributes read like a Who's Who entry! And w/ all of that said? I can't hate him, except maybe like others on here, be jealous of his hair! 😏

He’s 82 and hasn’t changed much in all the time we’ve known him. Armchair criticism is easy. As far as his look, he said he would be unrecognizable without his signature hair. That is a painful industry standard to maintain. He says it was a thing that became unavoidable since he wishes to remain in the public eye in order to sell his paintings and occasional concert, which is true of any older celebrity, whether you are Dolly Parton, Elton John…name anybody.

Wow, that time in the Seventies was amazing for Easy Listening, which really came into its own. The Carpenters, Paul Williams, Bobby Goldsboro, Harry Nillson. There was a nostalgic feel to the songs even when they were new. It made that whole early 70s eerily dreamy and kind of disconnected from reality. Even the photos all seem to be a bit blurry and only in the colors brown, yellow, and orange. Despite Watergate, and gas shortages, living was easy. So easy. Maybe not the sexiest or most exciting time in history, but geez, we were all just trying to recover from the 60s, and this music really did the trick. I would love to see a compilation from that era. There probably is one, but I never see easy listening comps. If you know of any, let me know.
