Todo un personaje de los verdaderos seminales del rock´n roll. Genio y figura que se autoproclamaba el rey del rock´n roll y bueno, la reina también.
Puro showman y canciones a puñados que forman parte de la historia en cientos de versiones.

y awapabolubabalambabum!! Tutti frutti himno pre-gay encima ya en los 50´s.

R.I.P. Pequeño Ricardo y chapeau

Ha fallecido La Reina del Rock. Descanse en paz.

Una leyenda, sin duda.

Han hecho esta noche un especial en Radio 3 dedicado que supongo se podrá escuchar a la carta, por si a alguien le interesa.

Me ha sorprendido escuchar esta versión del Brown Sugar de los Rolling Stones, que no conocia:

D.E.P. un GRANDE


Esto es lo que Dylan dijo ayer:

I just heard the news about Little Richard and I’m so grieved. He was my shining star and guiding light back when I was only a little boy. His was the original spirit that moved me to do everything I would do.

I played some shows with him in Europe in the early nineties and got to hang out in his dressing room a lot. He was always generous, kind and humble. And still dynamite as a performer and a musician and you could still learn plenty from him. In his presence he was always the same Little Richard that I first heard and was awed by growing up and I always was the same little boy. Of course he’ll live forever. But it’s like a part of your life is gone.


Saludos,

Uno de los grandes del Rock&Roll ... D.E.P.
