Jimmie Rodgers Just Split For A Greater Stage

Jimmie F Rodgers (September 18, 1933 - January 18, 2021) just checked out. One of the biggest of the big in the late 50s, he ran afoul of notorious mobster Mo Levy and literally had his head bashed in and was almost killed by an off duty LA police officer who was one of Mo's enforcers. After that he returned to the stage, but had health complications from then on. I loved his music when younger. For your remembrance, from a much more innocent era, his biggest hit "Honeycomb." If you want more, here's his 2020 birthday celebration! Saturday Early Show Celebrating the 2020 Birthday of Legendary Songwriter PF Sloan and Mr. “Honeycomb,” Jimmie F. Rodgers. RIP.
