Have you seen some of the crazy-difficult puzzle caches coming out lately?!  Well, I reckon it's time for an easy one, or two, or maybe even three!  A few months ago our son, 'The Jackaroo', had to choose from a list of Texas legends, and then act as that person in a Living Wax Museum Exhibit.  We think he chose well!

Elvis Presley called this man "The greatest singer of all time."

Bob Dylan said that he "transended all the genres" and "you didn't know if you were listening to mariachi or opera. There wasn't anything on the radio like him."

George Harrison recounted: "There was nobody like him."

The legend, himself stated: "Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional, it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it."

Early in his career, Life Magazine called him an "anonymous celebrity".

If you're still not sure who I'm talking about, here's a very simple timeline of his life:

  • April 23, 1936:  Born in Vernon, TX.
  • 1942:  Got his first guitar.
  • 1949:  Formed first band, 'The Wink Westerners'.
  • 1956-1958:  Recorded at Sun Records.
  • 1960-1964:  22 of his songs placed on the Billboard Top 40.
  • December 6, 1988:  Died in Hendersonville, TN from a heart attack.

Trivia: He was also well-known in the smaller world of radio-controlled model aircraft as both a champion modeler and flier.

So, there you go.  By now, you should have a good idea on who the anonymous celebrity is.  If not, that's okay, a small amount of research is still required and it ought to be easy, given the information already provided.  The 'codeword' is the celebrity's middle name.  Enter it into the geo-checker, and it'll give you the final coordinates.
