Oh, this is easier than you might think it would be. Seeing Sam Cooke sing live would be it for me. What else would be left to do? What could top that?

Yeah, I'd pick the Sam Cooke tour. Not only would Sam be gone in a few years, but also Clyde and Jackie.

Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly and Frankie Lymon

Surprised to find that Fats Domino is younger than Chuck Berry, always thought he was much older.
