He's buried in the same cemetery as my parents in Kelsey, TX. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/140193754/larry-henley 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveTV1 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I didn't realize that so many black artists were missing. It's a shame, because there are so many that deserve the honor that are from Texas or wrote their music in Texas some notables : Robert Johnson, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Ornette Coleman, Barry White, Freddie King, Johnny Mathis, Usher, Beyonce, and I know I'm missing several older musicians that should be in. It's stupid to leave them out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
