They feel all young and squishy.

Death Impends 8,043 Posted May 9, 2020 Just now, Paul Bearer said: I closed it because it was a Jerry v Dick. Jerry won. There wasn't really any need to keep it open. It wasn't a "who dies first" thread but rather a venue to discuss both Little Richard and JLL and other early rockers. Though Richard later got a standalone thread once he appeared on DL which muddled things. Anyways as the original thread is @harrymcnallysblueandwhitearmy 's doing so I think I'll wait and see what he feels best before tampering any further. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just thought we had better have a thread one way or the other to preserve Jerry Lee. How the gods of DL do it, that is how it shall be done!

ObakeFilter 962 Posted May 9, 2020 So besides Sonny Rollins and JLL, are there any other 50's major solo artists left standing? I can think of Helen Merrill but don't know if she is considered as big as both of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
