I was just doing my exercise this morning and this came up on my shuffle. A great one to exercise to!
I first heard this back in 1962 when I was thirteen. I had been into Buddy Holly and the Shadows and got hold of Here’s Little Richard. What a fabulous album. The power of those 1950s vocals certainly rocked me. He was the King for me! I played that album to death until I discovered Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley and then the Beatles blew everything apart.
“Long Tall Sally”
He claims he has the music
