It’s Little Richard. 1964 UK TV Show

Recorded in Manchester, UK in November 1963 when Little Richard was invited into the Granada TV studios to tape this special while headlining a UK tour featuring, amongst others The Everly Brothers and a virtually unknown band at the time called The Rolling Stones. Probably the best live performance ever recorded. Commencing with a storming version of William tell overture by Sounds Incorporated, Little Richard then opens with Rip It Up, after which The Shirelles sing two numbers and then join with Richard for the gospel number Joy, Joy, Joy. Part 2 is all Little Richard, getting more frantic with each number as he storms through Lucille and Long Tall Sally. The soulful, Send Me Some Lovin’ follows before Richard sets the studio alight with, Whole Lotta Shakin Goin On, Hound Dog, Good Golly Miss Molly, Tutti frutti, and finishing with a stomping version of Jenny Jenny. Originally transmitted on 8th Jan 1964. Enjoy.
