Little Richard - Greatest Hits

180-gram vinyl

Featuring "Tutti Frutti", "Lucille", "Long Tall Sally" and more!

Richard Wayne Penniman, known by the stage name Little Richard, debuted with one of the most important songs in the history of rock'n'roll with "Tutti Frutti" (1955), which famously started with a shout along the lines of "a-wom-bomp-a-woom-op-a-womp-bam-boom!" It was recently named by the British music magazine Mojo as the single record that changed music more than any other. "Long Tall Sally" and "Rip It Up" were further hits, as were "Keep A Knockin'" and "Good Golly, Miss Molly." Because of "Tutti Frutti" and these other successful songs, Little Richard was often cited by other musicians of the period as one of the biggest influences on their music.
