RIP Little Richard

A couple of days ago I had "Tutti Fruiti" playing in my head all day, odd coincidence.... I really liked his songs when I was younger.

Good Golly Miss Molly. Hate to see him go.I remember being employed at a place called Grants Lounge in Macon Ga in the early 70's. I was working the door and the place was packed. Here comes Little Richard. He breezed past me and went in to jam with the house band. Great music that night.
