This man had to fight for everything. He had to wait forever just to get his star on Hollywood. Without him music wouldn’t be what it is today. RIP Little Richard
LIttle Richard was lovable. He made us just love him - for his music, his attitude, his brashness, his sassiness, his colorful costumes, his shrieking, his whole everything. Everybody loves Little Richard!
Little Richard passed away at the age of 87. We’ll always love him and his music. He is the architect, innovator and the originator of rock ‘n roll music, before the Beatles, Rolling Stones and many others. 😎🌟🎶❤️🎤🙏🎹🎵
Not True. The first Rock song was by JOE TURNER - Shake, Rattle and Roll in 1954. The Rock song that really put Rock into the spotlight was Rock around the Clock by Bill Haley in 1954.
Dan Livni u can’t deny Little Richard brought Rock n Roll out! Joe Turner and Bill was still slowed down with an Rnb sound,playing the piano slow 🎻 🎺 ... Lil Richard came out playing fast piano and banging on instruments ...Lil Richard came out in 1956 and put a spin on what was out in 1954...Nothing like him Dan
@@danlivni2097 Haley's songs were ok but there was one important thing missing. Black artist like Little Richard just didn't sing a song they sang it with soul and boogie. Black artist of that period had a unique style of injecting boogie woogie into their music. They went way beyond any white singing artist of the day. Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis were the first white artist to do so in that time period. R&R black artist offered us so much more than singing. Until this day we still can't boogie like our black brothers and sisters. You know what they say " White men can't jump " Not only rock but the blues styling were introduced to us by black artist like Robert Johnson. Little Richards and don't forget Chuck Berry offered us this new style. They are now iconic reminders of how music has evolved. Even to this very day we are influenced by the music of that period. Little Richard's and his contributions to music became infectious. A gay black man as well being treated as if he was not gay always amazed me. Little Richard and Billy Preston along with Jimi Hendrix on guitar jamming. Who the hell can tell us of such encounters? One man Little Richard. It's absolutely true. Bill Haley. I just don't think so.
This is incredible. Little Richard and Billy Preston jamming together. Don't get much better than that. At the time we could of never imagined how they would influence music as we know today.
I stand to contend, that Little Richard united more people in his lifetime than any politician, church, or philosophical doctrine. And did so without threat or force. Just pure joy. In his belief, he gave it all in thanks to Jesus 🙏
He was in a terrible accident years before this, and suffered clinic pain because of it, having several rids in his legs (not to mention one leg was born longer than the other), and eventually he became confined to a wheelchair completely. Several comments regarding his dancing ability are misinformed at best. I was surprised to see him up walking, much less trying to move around to the beat. I'd say he did pretty well. In the end, he transformed his life and lived totally for God, becoming an evangelist and sharing a new message for a new generation.
Never knew of him or his music. I was of his era but too busy working to care much about rock and roll. Now 77 years old I know him. Better than Elvis, who I cannot stand or the beetles, I love little Richard for who he was and the music he made. Surely the heavens opened and embraced their newest resident.
Poor little Rich. He's walking kind of stiff because he was in a bad car accident and it affected both his legs and hips but that doesn't stop him from singing and dancing great Showmanship
A LEGEND NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN,,,,HE DESERVED MORE CREDIT IN THE 50s THAN WHAT HE GOT,,AND MOST BIG STARS INCL,ELVIS COPIED HIS SONGS ,, BUT HE WILL WILL REMEMBERED FOR HIS TALENT AND AS THE PIONEER OF ROCK N ROLL
+victoria grant Yes indeed, i had the pleasure of meeting both of them as a matter of fact Richard later gave me that same jacket he's wearing in this show.
Love him ♥️his realness, his silliness - infectious! RIP KING 👑 “ It’s a poor dog [who] can’t wag his own tail”. I’m gonna find “Nutbush City Limits” next.
Thanx so much for posting this. I used to stay up late & watch David Brenner all the time. I didn't get nearly enough sleep in HS. At this time Little Richard & Prince really did look alike. Love both of 'em!
This is so earnest, he'd retired from r-n-r twice and is coming back again, attempting to reconcile church and Rock n Roll, combining it and his devotion to God by admitting his path as a search...
Little Richard might not a dancer per se but he knew how to rock them shoulders and clap them hands and making everybody else clap your hands what a guy
There was nothing little about Little Richard he was pretty tall and he didn't really dance when he sung but he moved them big wide shoulders while he sang peace out Little Richard
Little Richard ... mad as a box of frogs, so eccentric but insanely talented. The undisputed queen of rock n roll. Whoooooo! I feeel sooo real! SHUT UP!! 😂😅🤣
Billy Preston was a legend too, and was with Little Richard almost from the beginning. Got his start with Little Richard, I think, same as Hendrix did... what a band that would've been! I can't imagine how good a piano player you have to be for Little Richard to hand over the keys, so to speak.
Y'all got to remember, when he came out it was before James Brown, Aretha, Motown, Ray Charles, Tina Turner, jerry lee lewis, the beatles, the beach boys, the rolling stones, heck even before Elvis Presley. Everything we have now traces back to Little Richard, Rosetta Tharpe and Robert Johnson. Look at Billy Preston on that piano, get it!
@UCny2dBx8d58j7S7f09GrSGw The most honest statement you mad was you don't know me. Know as an African American Jeshua( Jesus is not his name) has done nothing for us the last 400 years. We own only one half of one percent of the wealth in this country. Now I know this "Jesus was used to subjugate us and make us docile. Now since you only know of a" hell from the Bible which was made by man and what you were conditioned as baby to believe I have to say you are incorrect. Hell wasn't originally in the Bible it was added later because it was found that it controls ppl. Read the oldest complete Bible The Codex Sinaticus and you will see. Now we know there was other religeous txt that predate the Torah and Bible by thousands of years that talk about God. Now you can believe what you want. I choose to research and rely on facts,reason,logic,science and spirituality. So these books that talk about God that predate the Torah and Bible such as The Enuma Elish,The Egyptian Book of the Dead,The 42 laws of Maat from which the Ten Commandments were plagerized from,The Indian Vedic scriptures,etc either God is confused or someone is lying. So what I would suggest what you do is go on your journey instead of arrogantly pressing your beliefs on other.Jeshua said the Kingdom of Heaven is within. He knew Christ consciousness is within. ISo if you get you concept of God,Jesus,heaven and hell from on a book that has flaws and inconsistencies such as Noah's flood and the Exodus which modern scholars and Jewish scholars say there is no evidence of than I have to be leery of anything that can be proven outside that book. Stop saying Amen. You are praying to an evil pharoah named Amen-Ra as well. He existed before amen. There also a resurrection story before Jeshua as well. So honey encourage to go on a journey of researching and vetting what you been "conditioned" to believe. That's you talking to you. Your higher and lower self. Remember Jeshua said are we not God's. You are God. IAM God.

Wow what a wonderful man we understand the abuse that he went through because me and my sisters went to abuse also physical and mental he seems like he loved a lot of attention I think we all think my sisters and I that's why he needed so much attention because he didn't get it at home all 8 of us love him all my sisters 8 of us except for one we called her a Negative Nancy because she's so judgemental but the rest of us love him he's such a wonderful person alright we're done we love you so much Little Richard you have a nice life

Wait forever to get a star on the devil's sidewalk
And" I got a chance to see & touch it to. Little Richard "
So true. Phenomenal talent and man.

Prince's inspiration for sure.
I'll always love him forever.

He’s so funny. When I was a kid, I loved when he would say “shut up!” And still now.
