i think the interesting thing here is that, given that the amount of media coverage bands back in the '60s & '70s received in comparison to the amount given today, you wonder how the fans really would have thought about prolly any number of musicians. it's kind of like FDR: the man had polio & was in a wheelchair, but b/c even radio hardly covered the presidential races, no one knew. i could almost guarantee that, if FDR were subjected to today's races, he would get clobbered simply because people don't really want to elect someone so sickly.
