History
Little Richard, born Richard Wayne Penniman on December 5, 1932, in Macon, Georgia, grew up singing gospel in Pentecostal churches before joining a traveling show as a teenager. His career took off in September 1955, when he recorded "Tutti Frutti" at J&M Studios in New Orleans with Specialty Records producer Bumps Blackwell; the song's raw energy, pounding piano, and gospel-fired vocal whoops became a blueprint for rock and roll. Hits followed fast: "Long Tall Sally" and "Rip It Up" in 1956, "Lucille" in 1957, and "Good Golly Miss Molly" in 1958, alongside appearances in early rock films like The Girl Can't Help It. At the peak of his fame he abruptly quit music for Bible college and became a preacher, later returning to performing after the Beatles' covers of his songs revived interest in him. Mojo magazine named "Tutti Frutti" the most world-changing record ever made, and it was added to the Library of Congress's National Recording Registry in 2010. Little Richard was in the first class inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986 and is widely cited as a direct influence on James Brown, the Beatles, and Prince. He died on May 9, 2020, at age 87.
