B-Man Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I'm so sad to see that. Here's my favorite Little Richard song: Well, along about ten I'll be flying high/Rock on out unto the sky/'Cause I don't care if I spend my dough/Tonight I'm gonna be one happy soul...Rock on out unto the sky, Richard... tonight and forever 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, just the piano players were Little Richard, The Killer, Fats Domino and Ray Charles. Not to mention people like BB King, Bo Diddley, James Brown, et al. For the younger generation, its like a 50s-60s version of X-Men Infinity Wars, Rock and Roll edition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beatles & Rolling Stones -among many others-claim he was extremely instrumental in their musical styles and did a few copies of his songs, notably Long Tall Sally. That’s enough for me to be a fan. Thanks, LR, for your contribution to Rock & Roll. R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 He led an interesting life, seemed to have many battles over his religious upbringing and his sexuality/rock & roll lifestyle over the years. I also heard he officiated Demi Moore's wedding to Bruce Willis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
