Between 1955 and 1957, he was the most exciting person on the planet, thanks to his seismic debut album. This in-depth look at Little Richard since his death in May 2020 features new interviews with famous fans such as Sir Elton John, Dave Grohl, Joan Jett, and Nile Rodgers. The book explores his roots in the queer underground of the American South, a scene so progressive that it thrived seven decades ago. It also delves into early rebel music such as jump blues, which soon collided with the emerging juggernaut that was rock 'n' roll. When that weird alchemy occurred, Little Richard was ready to spark the likes of The Beatles, David Bowie, and Prince into existence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Long Tall Sally\" and \"Tutti Frutti\" remain omnipresent, and the latter was the \"WAP\" of its day. This is the story of how Little Richard changed the world in 28 minutes and 30 seconds.
