Not a household name, but if you grew up in the 1970's, certainly in the US, you heard this guy's music. The voice of Schoolhouse Rock....

I emailed him once and told him the the kids in school and I listened to his great music.  I said the kids today love all of his songs.


He emailed me back within the hour.

I remember watching those on tv all the time. Great stuff. Amazing watching him do Devil May Care on that Youtube clip. Just brilliant.
