Publisher's Summary

Discover the remarkable life of Little Richard....

Little Richard was an incredible performer and musical pioneer who revolutionized music for generations to come. For just about anyone else, such words might sound like hyperbole, but for Little Richard, it’s the pure and simple truth. Little Richard, with his jumpy driving sound and innovative vocalizations, certainly earned his title as the “Architect of Rock and Roll.”

Just like he said in one of his songs—“Ready Teddy! Rock and Roll!”—it’s pure and simple rock and roll; it’s pure and simple Little Richard. This book tells you all about his exciting story, which came to inspire icons such as the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley, and David Bowie.

Discover a plethora of topics such as

  • Early Life in Macon, Georgia
  • The Shooting of His Father
  • Tutti Frutti and Long Tall Sally
