Because you probably have never even heard his music in the first place:

A long time ago I heard his song 'streets of London' on a folk music show, and discovered the album by that name, not the best of version. It was an LP and I lost it along the way but its wonderful that he can be found again on you tube. He has a beautiful voice and should be more well known. I'm slowly finding the people I used to look for and recollecting their music.

Thanks for reminding me of him again.

I play a version of that song on my ukulele and guitar. It is a profound and moving song. A Classic.

Here is a version that is a little different, just to show it has appeal across genres.
