He sure sang a lot of wonderful memorable songs.

That's for sure, both with the Drifters and on his own. One of the greats.

If you ever get the chance to see Smokey Joe's Cafe don't miss it. One of the highlights was a very dramatic performance of King's lesser but (to my mind) classic hit, "I (Who Have Nothing)."

I saw it on, I think, HBO. Great stuff. I started to use that song today, Jeff, but I thought this one might be a little better known.
