Sad news. Country & Western not my thing but he did some great songs.

He played the original Godzilla
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

I just watched the latest Toho studios version. CGI, but motion captured from a guy pulling a tractor tyre around apparently. Good solid remake with just a bit too much fancy new powers.

Always loved the Gojira films, no pretence at realism, just good fun.

Not my cup of tea at all, but he had a damned good innings.

Jerry Lewis reminds me of the films that were on during the Summer holidays as a kid. IIRC he was teamed up with Dean Martin, who went on to greater fame.
