prevnextThanks to my stepdad, there were few days growing up where the music of Little Richard wasn’t playing in our household. Songs like “Good Golly Miss Molly” & “Rip it Up” were plying on a loop. Not to mention his performance in “Down and Out in Beverly Hills” which is 🔥. RIP Icon https://t.co/tjZxS0yM0X

RIP Little Richard. The man who invented Rock and Roll. Elvis popularized it. Chuck Berry was the storyteller. Richard was the archetype. Maureen and I were so honored being the first marriage he conducted. We were lucky to know him. He lives forever in the Underground Garage. https://t.co/D8NwRKcshi
