LITTLE
RICHARD
Little Richard was born Richard Penniman in 1932, in Macon, Georgia. He is 1 of the principal architects of rock 'n roll. Not only did he help shape its sound, but his flamboyant and unique look paved the way for artists such as Prince, Michael Jackson and James Brown.
His rock piano style was a fusion of gospel and New Orleans rhythm and blues. Specialty signed him up in the 1950s. After many flops, he finally scored a hit with the 1955 single "Tutti Frutti". The disc reached #2 on the US R&B Chart. Numerous seminal rock classics followed, including: "Long Tall Sally", "Lucille", "Slippin' And Slidin'" and "Good Golly Miss Molly".
Richard appeared in many rock films such as 'The Girl Can't Help It'. In 1957, while on tour in Australia, he quit rock 'n roll to enrol in Bible college.
In the 1960s, The Beatles covered some of his songs on the group's early albums. By this time, Richard was back as a rock performer. Jimi Hendrix was briefly a member of his band.
Little Richard has outlived most of his rock 'n roll contemporaries: Buddy Holly, Elvis Presley and (most recently) Chuck Berry.
