Just saw that in the news.

I am one of those who thought he had died already.

I think I confused him with The Big Bopper, probably because I'm not very familiar with either one.

He had a great sound; smooth and soulful. He's in my top five favorite early rockers.

One of the great originals of early rock & roll. RIP

Just heard Vladimir Putin singing Blueberry Hill on the radio

Sounded kinda like the Chieftains, but worse :^D

 

[Mayne]

I'd pay to hear Putin singing that song.

I have a mancruch on putin...did he sing the song?

I'd pay to hear Putin singing that song.

Look on youtube. You might find it free. The show gave no context to why Vlad was singing. It was an article on Blueberry Hill covered by bands(in roughly Fats Domino style) from around the world.
