He created a new genre ( soul) Not only was he immensely talented, but one of the handsomest and charismatic figures in music. All of which should make him in demand subject for movies, plays etc., Its sad that when his name is brought up in conversation he is referred to as the "singer who raped the girl in the motel and got shot". What a travesty of justice. I find it amazing that the public knows so little about a man who is one of the architects of modern popular music.
