    I literally bumped into Robert Palmer on a street in Adelaide Australia on a drunken Saturday night in the 80s as he was walking out of about the only late night club we had there then. I was very young and pretty drunk, he was dressed immaculately in a suit and tie and could have been upset and angry with me but was wonderfully polite and friendly. Has always stayed with me as my brush with fame to this day in my late 50s. RIP Mr Palmer and thanks for yet another great 80s memory 😊

    Robert Palmer - Was such an underrated singer. He’s a sad loss to the music industry. I’ve got a lot of his albums and listen to them regularly. I think he’s got a very distinctive voice. Singers nowadays don’t usually dress as good as he did. A clean cut and looked really great. A very sad loss, in my opinion.

    • @55Quirll

      Jesus is coming soon to RAPTURE His Believers.
      Don't be left behind! The unbelievers will be left behind to endure the antichrist, Man killing demons, and a plethora of ungodly , unimaginable disasters and horrors.
      To avoid that horrible 7 years known as The Great Tribulation according to scriptures;
      ⁹If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9)
      All these volcanoes and earthquakes are signs in the Bible that Jesus spoke of before his second coming. The King is coming soon! 🙌🏻
