DORIS DAY is actually still alive at 94. I think she had her first #1 hit in 1945, which means her mainsteam music career pre-dates the 1950's.
Charles Aznavour was a huge pop music celebrity in postwar Europe; apparently he turns 92 this month. Toots Thielemans (the legendary Belgian jazz musician) is 94.
Tony Bennett turns 90 in August. Harry Belafonte is 89. Burt Bacharach turns 88 in a week. Ennio Morricone is 87. Berry Gordy is 86, though he was a writer/producer more than a performer.
Vera Lynn (a hugely-popular English singer from the WWII era) is 99.

Should we make a page of notable musicians who died in 2016 on the /mu/ Wiki? The impression is that there are a lot more of them this year, but we'll have to see if that holds up in following years.

Is he Christian for this decade?
>>64545890

Holy shit.
>>64547192

I was comparing Prince unfavourably to LR the other day and now this happens. Goddammit. I suppose at least we've had a warning with this one.

I hate to say it but it's going to get worse and worse every year from now on until the last of the 50s/60s/70s stars has died and all we're left with is 80s/90s scumbags and 00s/10s fuccbois.
I hope he doesn't feel any pain. Little Richard is a cool guy.
>>64546929
They all lived to see Harrison and Bowie die. Wtf.
