I'd give just about anything to see a photo of the flashing sign on his Long Island lawn reading "The World's Greatest Blues Singer Lives Here." As the great Dizzy Dean once said, "it ain't bragging if you can do it."

He just might be the world's greatest blues singer!
Or blues shouter at least.

I don't know about Long Island in 1955 but in 2014, a light-up lawn saying "The World's Greatest Blues Singer Lives Here" would be the classiest thing in Nassau or Suffolk.
