Nicolas Cage Is A Huge Fan Of This Groundbreaking Rock And Roll Pioneer: "He Was My Hero"

Nicolas Cage has long been one of the most fascinating (and highly eccentric) creators in the history of Hollywood. The actor and producer has been a pinball over the course of his career, bouncing from acclaimed performances (Raising Arizona, Moonstruck) and charmingly mainstream madness (Face/Off, Con Air) to box office blunders (Knowing, Rage). His hobbies have echoed this in an equally erratic way over the years, including a voracious enjoyment of buying real estate (which helped lead him into once-severe debt), rare comic books, expensive automobiles, and even (briefly) the skull of an exotic dinosaur.
