I still think his best performance was in the episode of Columbo titled The Murder of a Rock Star. |

I've got a 78 of LR with Long Tall Sally and Slippin' and Slidin' from 1955. Is this a record? |

'Little Richard' sounds so much better than 'Small Dick', don't you think? |

Can't say I've ever given it much thought. Rum.

Frank Zappa and The Mothers recorded a Little Richard song. A million bonus points to anyone who can name the song ![]() I have to confess, I had the album and didn't actually know it was a Little Richard song: it is credited to 'Richard Wayne Penniman'. It seems it was an outtake from the Hot Rats sessions. Edited by rumbaba, Dec 7 2012, 12:25 PM.
