    I so much wish this interview could have been hours.
    Craig's humor, respect, and understanding towards Little Richard, and then of course the wonderfully amazing, talented, intelligent Little Richard himself.
    This brief five minutes is a treasure. Thanks Craig!

    I saw Little Richard live sometime after this or thereabouts. I think he said he was 73 at the time. Big fan all my life and he did not disappoint.
    Still the great entertainer, singer, and showman. RIP Little Richard.
    And thanks for the upload. Big thumbs up.

    That was VERY disrespectful of Prince. Especially considering he owes his whole style to this Legend.

    • @Riverdeepnwide
      @Riverdeepnwide 4 роки тому +13

      From Prince's Rolling Stone interview 2004:
      "When I meet with a label now, they already know they're not going to be owning anything. Maybe at one time they could get Little Richard for a new car and a bucket of chicken. We don't roll like that no more."
      Simultaneously taking a shot at the record industry and marginalization of segregation.
      Little Richard was more concerned that we know he's vegetarian.

    Little Richard has always been an inspiration to me. This is a man who had the talent, the energy, the sense of humor and the raw chutzpah to become the star that he is. To me, there have been imitators but no-one has duplicated his influence on music and culture - and yet he was as southern down-home as anyone could be. He could sing a uptempo song with frenetic energy and a slower, softer song with an unmatched soulfulness. His voice was like a well-played tenor saxophone. I get gooseflesh every time I hear him song. I am grateful that he was in the world and that he lived a long life.

    There truly is a great gulf between the truly talented and the mediocre , today too many are ready give a standing ovation to the latter, and this encourages more of the same .
