Our Take

Ah, the flamboyant and unforgettable Little Richard, the true king of rock 'n' roll who never failed to deliver goosebump-inducing, high-energy performances. This collection of his very best hits is a whirlwind tour through his iconic discography, showcasing his raw talent and charismatic stage presence.

From the infectious piano riffs of "Tutti Frutti" to the soulful wails of "Long Tall Sally," each track on this album is a gem that solidifies Little Richard's status as a true legend of the genre. His signature falsetto vocals soar effortlessly over the jangly guitars and pounding drums, creating a sound that is both timeless and revolutionary.

Standout tracks like "Good Golly Miss Molly" and "Lucille" are guaranteed to get your hips shaking and your feet tapping, while slower ballads like "The Girl Can't Help It" showcase a softer, more vulnerable side to the artist.

Overall, The Very Best Of Little Richard is a must-have for any music lover looking to inject some pure, unadulterated joy into their listening experience. So crank up the volume, grab your dancing shoes, and get ready to rock and roll with the one and only Little Richard. This album is a true testament to his enduring legacy in the world of music.

About the artist

Little Richard

Meet the one and only Little Richard, the powerhouse performer who revolutionized the world of rock and roll back in the 1950s. With his electrifying stage presence, flamboyant outfits, and unforgettable voice, Richard quickly rose to fame as one of the genre's most iconic figures. Born Richard Wayne Penniman in Macon, Georgia, in 1932, this larger-than-life musician first burst onto the music scene with his hit song "Tutti Frutti" in 1955. Known for his signature "A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop-a-wop-bam-boom" catchphrase, Richard exuded a wild energy that was impossible to ignore. His energetic piano playing, dynamic vocals, and boundary-pushing lyrics set him apart from his contemporaries, earning him a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986. With other hits like "Good Golly, Miss Molly" and "Lucille," Richard continued to captivate audiences around the world with his unique blend of rhythm and blues, gospel, and rockabilly. Despite facing personal struggles and challenges throughout his career, Little Richard always found solace in his music, using it as a form of self-expression and empowerment. His influence can be felt in countless artists today, from The Beatles to Prince, who have all cited him as a major inspiration. So, whether you're a die-hard rock and roll fan or just looking to shake things up a bit, do yourself a favor and dive into the vibrant world of Little Richard. With his infectious energy and timeless tunes, he's sure to leave you shouting "A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop-a-wop-bam-boom" for days to come.
