I couldn’t agree more.  Some entertainers are truly one of a kind, and he fit that bill.

Re: Tributes Thread

Didn't realise he'd done so many. Long Tall Sally is great of course, I mean I love The Beatles' version.

Lennon did some covers too.

Only Jerry Lee Lewis left of the originals, surely?

Can anyone recommend a great rock n roll compilation vinyl album with Lee Lewis, Presley, Berry, Little Richard and Buddy Holly? It does seem they've been overlooked of late in the digital era. But their songs were great - I mean Chuck Berry had great lyrics and everything.

Astrid Kerchherr - the woman who helped create The Beatles.

Her chum went on to design the cover to Revolver, played bass on the Plastic Ono Band AND produced no 1 hit Da Da Da by Trio.

She created the Beatles haircut and that slightly chic European feel that gave the Beatles the edge when they returned from Hamburg. Took great photos too.
