Of course I had never heard him play or I might not have been so impressed, since he was a much better physicist than bongo/conga player. Actually he was a super-talented teacher of physics above all and helped a lot of students understand physics better. He was a complicated person who was known as a showman and a clown and much loved by many physicists, although by the surviving residents of Hiroshima and Nagasaki not so much.
