Shocking that he lived this long.

Thanks for the great music. RIP

About 50 years ago I was driving down Sunset Blvd in LA. Pulled up to a stoplight and then a guy in a purple convertible pulls up next to me. Looked over to admire the car and Little freaking Richard looks over with a big smile. Cool dude, great singer.

He and Prince are the finest pop/rock musicians of all time.
