Saw him in London a few years ago, I THINK he said he was 73 at the time. The years haven't been that good to him, he virtually needs help walking (or so it appeared at that particular show anyway), but sit the bastard down in front of a piano and .................. wow !! It was a delight to see him, have always loved him, he's up there with Jerry Lee and Chuck Berry and Fats Domino for me. These characters are irreplaceable.
More Lil Richard here, saw I already found that Toronto piece (peace ) .. Anyway, for those who have some boring hours in front of ya there might be some half an hour to kill with the links here...
