You are so right. I could listen to him for hours; not just because of his voice but because of his almost casual and intimate knowledge of the time period.
I saw him on a plane to Memphis once. I was too shy to say anything. Later, I heard him say in an interview that he wasn't too crazy about being approached for autographs, etc. Glad I was shy.
