I watched a 2 hour special that PBS broadcast on him last year. Lots of interviews including ex groupies/girlfriends. All said he was a really nice guy. Very introverted focused guy who cared about only two things his music and sex. As far as I am concerned best guitarist I have ever heard, and his singing was perfectly complimentary for the music.
