i don't know that murph's opinion is really that much on the fringes.
he may have been a legend to a certain demographic.


but again, i don't know... because i wasn't there.
and i don't know that he was a legend as an adult yet because
as i said before, there was no "beatles on ed sullivan" moment
to make him an icon.

and i think you need a moment like that to make you a legend.
