Sadly, Little Richard passed away today. A founding Father of Rock And Roll, his contributions simply canāt be overstated. I had the honor of meeting Richard in his later years and was awed by his presence. He told me, āI am the architect of Rock And Roll.ā Amen! ..Rest In Peace. https://t.co/ceQuNU6pkF

In the late 1980s, I was walking down Hollywood Blvd, a black limo drove by slowly, Little Richard waved at us from the back window with a crazy look on his face. A giant in Rock and Roll music.

No @ledzeppelin just listen to the intro of āRock and rollāsounds a bit like āKeep a Knockinā-met #LittleRichard a few times at the Hyatt on sunset, he was vibrant & talkative . He broke down huge walls and influenced many British lads- in turn that came back here to influence us https://t.co/i2nxFNEtlJ

Little Richard, Went There. In the face of Segregation & Sexual Conformity. He made it possible for Lady Gaga to scream like the White Woman SHE is. https://t.co/8FFmYk0Xo9

Iām very sorry to hear about Little Richard. He was there at the beginning and showed us all how to rock and roll. He was a such a great talent and will be missed. Little Richardās music will last forever. Love & Mercy, Brian pic.twitter.com/kcak6Rf4Re ā Brian Wilson (@BrianWilsonLive) May 9, 2020
RIP Little Richard. The man who invented It. Elvis popularized it. Chuck Berry was the storyteller. Richard embodied the Spirit of RocknRoll. Maureen and I were so honored being the first marriage he conducted. Were lucky to know him. He lives forever in the Underground Garage.
