Little Richard

Essential Works 1952-1962

Description

Little Richard was the stage name of Richard Wayne Penniman, a gospel and rhythm & blues singer, Rock’n’Roller, homosexual, Seventh-day Adventist, an extraordinary personality and the inventor of one of the most iconic rallying cries for a youth yearning for a new world and Rock’n’Roll: "A Wop Bop A Loo Bop A Lop Bam Boom!" One only needs to read the tracklist of this album to understand the importance of the character in the history of 1950s music: Tutti Frutti, Long Tall Sally, Lucille, Good Golly Miss Molly... Rock’n’Roll is unimaginable without Little Richard, and his influence on artists as significant as Prince or the Rolling Stones places him at the top of the pyramid of influencers.
