This man deserves to be in the rock and roll hall of Fame as much as anyone that is already in there!!

[@noahzark6755]

Nobody Beats Johnny Rivers! To Hell with THE HALL OF FAME! Most of the folks in there couldn't shine his shoes.

[@cswor]

I met Johnny briefly as a nerdy teenage fan back in the 60s. Never forgot how gracious he was! Unique voice that jumped out of radio and said, here I am! Summer Rain, Seventh Son, Rockin' Pneumonia, Slow Dancing, on and on!

[@ggbythesea9231]

Yes.. & He was such a Gentleman, when I met him in the 80's in Dallas 💫✨️💫

[@WBracknell]

Somebody don't know what they are doing. Johnny Rivers should have been in the Hall of Fame years ago. What a great entertainer. I've been enjoying his music for 45 years.

the Hall of Fame is a joke that's why they got people in there that is not even Rock and Roll and then they have tons of bands that are not in the hall of fame that should of been a long time a go

[@RhiannaBarr]

Johnny is amazing! He recorded this in the 60s and he hasn't had to drop the key he is singing in!

[@tulessaslone5592]

The older he gets, the better he looks!!

[@Tonithenightowl]

I know we should just slap him. It must be that Italian blood. My father in law, full Italian, barely had a wrinkle in his face when he died at 90. The bastards lol

[@jonburrows2684]

Telessa, we could say the same for you, hottie

[@darlenejeanson7131]

Johnny Rivers is one of the all-time great vocalist/performers of pop/rock music.

[@sigmapath1935]

Been a 90s grunger all my life but recently discovering Johnny Rivers and Eddie Cochran has altered my whole rock universe.

[@sixnightsaweek]

***** plus he has one thing they don't have and that is talent

[@sixnightsaweek]

***** In 45 years of performing he has not changed at all, I think you almost have to buy your way into the hall of fame. Some deserve it most do not.

[@captchet4850]

What a great artist. Thanks Johnny! What's the difference between a musician and an artist? A musician will play a piece until they don't get it wrong. An artist will play a piece until they cannot.
