On "Tutti Frutti"
"All new music changes the world, but no music changed the world the way this song did...a seminal text in American culture, as much as ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin,’ ‘Song of Myself’ and the great documents of the civil rights era are. In a sense, it’s America’s Other National Anthem.”
David Kirby, Little Richard, The Birth of Rock 'n' Roll
An old rhyme
Bel canto (in excelsis)
Bel canto (in excelsis)
Little Richard Penniman
and Chester Burnette,
singing Richard Wagner:
some duet!
