In the mid 60s he was a total junkie Dylan/Stones addict. Those albums, if you can find them, are spectacular.

Didn't he become a born again Christian? after his early 60's success, I remember "Abraham, Martin & John" a hit in '69.

Born again throughout much of the 70s
Born to run throughout much of the 80s (Springsteen productions/guest appearances/shout outs)
Born to sing the blues of late

D! That's the letter that starts the name "Dion." :willya

This is my favorite poll ever.

Because no one seems to get it.

I like to think it's not something that's meant to be gotten. And once you put that pesky notion of trying to "get it" out of your mind, then you really have truly "gotten it." The key lay in its absurdity. It's like asking, "How much does this weigh?" and the reply being, "Ham."

The Dave Edmunds produced '89 album 'Yo Frankie' is excellent latter day Dion.
