Good article at Rolling Stone

My favorite quote: "They'd never seen anything like me in Florida Georgia"  (now I think I got it right)

If Elvis was the King of Rock'n'Roll, then Little Richard was the emperor of Rock'n'Roll IMO!

Oh my soul! What a powerful voice (up to B4), what cool songs (made by himself)! I really prefer Little Richard! ?

Elvis was more a beldam Rock'n'Roller (please don't feel attacked, you Elvis fans out there). ?

I liked them both for different reasons.

IMO both were at their best in the 1950s.

Before Little Richard was a rock and roller, he was an excellent R&B singer (in the original meaning of the term R&B)

Check out this album. I liked it so much I bought a download copy and burned it to disk.
