Someone mentioned Chuck Berry's new album on ILM, and I was a bit surprised to find out him, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Little Richard are all still alive. For some reason I thought LR at least had died a while ago.
― Tuomas, Thursday, 20 October 2016 10:55 (nine years ago)
Once I saw this thread was bumped, I knew it would be someone mentioning Chuck Berry. I had the exact same thought process as you
― Vinnie, Thursday, 20 October 2016 11:26 (nine years ago)
I mean, this would be like Scott Joplin releasing a new album in 1956.

He was just on Gilbert Gottfried's podcast, on which I'm sure he managed to drop even more F-bombs than the host.

Orson Bean's ex-wife Carolyn (1960s & 70s) is apparently still alive also. Their daughter Susannah was married to Andrew Breitbart when he died in 2012.
