He had spent a lot of time in Nashville before moving to Middle Tennessee quite a while back. Got his start in clubs down on Jefferson street with Ike Turner and a young Jimi Hendrix among others. In later years he would hit Wendy's by Vanderbilt for a Frosty and wave to everybody. Very friendly, very different, absolutely one of a kind.
It's a dirty job but I got to do it for over 20 years. Thank you.

One of the original Great Ones, without which America might still be square dancing.
RIP Richie, thanks for the tunage. :cry:

Long Tall Sally always makes me think of the Helicoptor scene from Predator, with Jesse Ventura uttering the timeless line "This stuff will turn you into a Goddamn sexual Tyrannosaurus just like me!".
