He truly is the King, man, seriously. He still plays over 200 shows a year.

Not to mention he has diabetes, which on average shortens your lifespan by around 15 years or so.

I feel depressed that I haven't heard any of his music. What's he like? Is he like total hXc death metal? Or like bluesy jazz?

His collaboration with Eric Clapton was fantastic. Hopefully he'll get better soon. He is like the ultimate touring musician.
