Yes, I knew Blind Melon Savage.
 
He was not a famous musician. More like infamous.
His eyesight was so bad, I don't think he ever realized that he wasn't an African American Mississippi Delta Blues Singer.
His one chance at stardom failed to get off the ground. The Blues/Bagpipes fusion style that he originated in his classic, "I Got Those Low-Down Scottish Highland Blues."

Who can forget those classic lines;

It's so cold here in the evening
I can't get no barbecue
Sipping Scotch by the fireside
Wakin' up in the morning dew
Why the Hail do people stay here?
 G
ot those Scottish Highland Blues.
