    Very, very sad news to wake up to today.  R.I.P.  Little Richard.

    I didn't realize he was 87. Thought he was in his 70's.

    Always thought he was amazing

    Met him once at a Springsteen show in L.A. and he was nothing but gracious with me. Still have that autograph.

    He'll be missed

    I loved what Little Richard said about Jimi Hendrix.

    RIP ya bloody legend.
    Where would rock be without Little Richard's influence?  He had big balls, screaming and putting his leg up on the piano in front of white audiences...what a legend.

    I loved his flamboyancy.  Loved his wail.  Loved this commercial back in the day too.
