But the text... that makes it even better. Thanks for filling me in.

He lead an interesting life playing the role of rough tough and hardened Harley riding hood when in fact he was a New York boy with very little contact with the popular rough gang culture he played about. He thought of himself as kind of a wimp. But he played and sang like he cut his teeth on the streets.

I could sing all those songs you mentioned, I have courted loves to that music and basked in melancholy loss more than once listening to those tunes in the background.
