I've always believed that a great deal of his popularity stemmed in large measure from the hobo routine, Mr. RJ. Of course he was very talented, but he was able to connect with all the folks who were standing in the bread lines and looking for day labor jobs. He had the ability to translate their difficulties into laughter. No easy task. A little like Chaplin's "little tramp" character, perhaps. You were very fortunate to see him perform.
