That's a shame. He was one of the pioneers of Rock Music and was an influence to future legends. We're down to Jerry Lee Lewis and a few other originals. May he R.I.P.

Kind of a milquetoast memorization from Pat Boone's FB page considering he wouldn't have nearly as notable a career or bank account without songwriter Little Richard.

"RICHARD and I are brothers, musically and spiritually. I had million-selling records of his early R&B hits which weren’t known on Pop radio..and he credited me with helping him cross over to the larger market—but way more than that, we knew we were Christian brothers and we celebrated that. I look forward to seeing him again before too long."

Pat Boone
