Not primarily known as a singer, although has sang. I should point out the solo material in #14 which features the singing in #19 is pretty obscure. In fact, I first found out it existed this week when I was double checking Wikipedia to make sure I answered #14 accurately. While it exists, it is definitely not what he is known for or what comes to mind when you hear his name. ---
