Good Golly, said little Miss Molly
Richard Wayne Penniman, better known as Little Richard, has passed away from cancer at the age of 87. He was one of the pioneers of Rock’n’Roll music and his influence on many subsequent rock musicians, including our own boys, can not be underestimated.
Rest in peace, Little Richard.
Thanks to Rolling Stone for the info and to Martin for the heads up.

DP introduced me to your music as a kid and I was glad to have seen you perform even though you were in your mid 60’s by the time I was old enough to see you…

Will I live to see the day House of Blue light being remixed and expanded?
I want to shoot everyone who thinks it was a good idea to let songs fade during a moment Blackmore is peaking with a solo.

Happy 50th Anniversary of IN ROCK to all my crazy Deep Purple buddies everywhere.
