Saw him in concert in 2007 in Anaheim. He was really off his game that night. 2 hours late, talked more than sang. I know the guy had talent because I’d listened to his music for years. But it wasn’t on display that night.

I remember the short-lived sitcom “That’s My Mama” from the mid-70s, when Clifton Davis was sorting his record album collection by male and female performers. He made a third pile for Little Richard.

He was 87 . . . the cause of death was unknown

Old age?

I always resented his gal Daisy for how she treated him.

I used to fly my sailplane to his music.

Aw. Too bad. I love his music and theatrics.

My cellphone ringtone for my mom is Little Richard’s, “Lucille”. (Mom is “Lucile”.) I edited out the beginning, so immediately when the phone rings, it shrieks, “LUCILLE!” It scares some people.

Back in 1957/58 I remember going to the Fresno Memorial auditorium on Friday nights, to see Little Richard. The music was great and the place was packed. Everyone was dancing and having a great time. One person even jumped of the balcony and landed on the dance floor. RIP Richard
I hear you knocking.....

Little Richard played at my mom’s high school dances in the 50’s but I never saw him live.

My favorite 80’s charting hit of his was a rock cover of “Itsy Bitsy Spider” with a giant black furry piano with eight legs.
