LITTLE RICHARD Penniman's CHILDHOOD HOUSE & Where He LEARNED To Play Piano!

[@danielconnor5388]

1992 my wife and I were visiting a friend in Manhattan, we stopped at a corner coffee shop and little Richard and his entourage were there… was definitely a surprise.

[@Zaradikaresells]

And the winner of the Grammy is….ME! 😂😂😂 That was so funny when he introduced the Grammy nominations. He was a quite a character. Revolutionary and Super talented RIP Mr. Penniman!

Hey Jordan! Fun fact-at least for me. He passed away in a little town called Tullahoma,in Tn,at his family’s house. I am from Tullahoma. He used to come in to town in his radiant,wonderful fashion! He was ALWAYS so,kind,friendly,gracious, and of course loved the attention we all gave him! I worked with his nephew, and he reminds everyone of Little Richard. I remember and will never forget,he came into the bank one day dressed to the 9’s! He had a long,silk cape that was embellished with jewels and stitching. He walked in,threw his arms up with the cape draped, and said Hello! It’s me,Little Richard! How is everyone doing today? And of course everyone flocked and greeted him. He,would also visit random establishments and do pop up’s. He was always so friendly and obviously inviting to everyone that wanted to meet or speak to him. Thank you for this cover of him. Happy Holidays!!!!

[@dianemendez3715]

Thank you for this clip on him. Always loved him loved watching him talk his energy is through the roof. Bet he was the center of every gathering. RIP LUV ❤️🙏

I knew a few of his band members and was fortunate enough to get to meet him after a show years ago. He was really outgoing and treated you like he had known you his entire life. If you ever get to Muscle Shoals Alabama you could probably set up an interview with some of his former band members.

[@esthergarcia1373]

Thank you Jordan for showing us where Little Richard grew up. He was a very flamboyant personality type of guy as well as super talented. It’s great that they haven’t torn down his childhood home like with other celebrities homes. It’s amazing how each band member you mentioned that were part of his band went out to also be legends of their own like Jimi Hendrix and Billy Preston! Mind blowing. I also melt every time I see Jah’s sweet face at the beginning and end of your videos. Much love sent to you, Katie and Jah. ❤🙏🎹🎼⭐

[@lori394]

You always do such unique videos, Jordan! Loved this one, too! Thank you, and Merry Christmas to you, Katie and Jah!

[@mariacardenas4665]

I miss him. May God bless him. Rest in peace.

[@CAT-Anne]

hang in there Jorden! Your videos are like no others! I've watch most of them. I'll rewatch them again~

[@michaellarkin7071]

He lived at the Hilton in Nashville. I walked passed him twice in one week in 2017 in front of the Hilton as he was getting into his gold Escalade. He waved and smiled at me both times.

Im from Macon, Georgia. I visited this house when I was around 17. The house was at a different location. I remember walking through the house and falling in a rotten section. I love Little Richard.

[@hollydaly3160]

Great blog once again! I love Little Richard, what energy!!

[@angelalinderman9985]

Loved Little Richard!🎶🎶🎶 Happy Holidays to you, Katie, Jah and everyone 💜🎉🎄💚❤️👍

[@elizabethmadron1336]

My great Aunt worked with him at the bus station. He sent her Christmas cards every year even though he got famous. She died in the early 2000's. He outlived her. He went on a speaking tour as an evangelist. Near the end of his life he looked totality different. I did not recognize him. There is a video of him on KZbin. He is sitting down whole time.

[@Allthelifestyle21]

This video was so enjoyable to see little Richard’s childhood home, really enjoyed this ❤

[@JudiKerestan]

So great! Merry Christmas to you and Katie! And Jah!

[@mariaday712]

Thank you for trying to show us Richard's house. Nothing you can do if no one is there. I enjoyed what was there. You take care.

[@Riz2336]

That's cool, he's one of those old classic dudes from the golden era of rock

[@hooksetjohn]

I first saw little Richard in Norfolk, Virginia at a black dance with

[@hooksetjohn]

I saw a little Richard again in Atlanta, Georgia with James Brown after James got out of prison. I have always loved little Richard.😊❤😊❤❤❤❤

[@hooksetjohn]

White spectators. My sister told me not to jump up and scream, but she was the first one to jump up and start screaming for little Richard. I have always liked and loved little Richard.❤😊❤❤❤❤

RIP Little Richard, The Quasar of Rock N Roll

[@cfc326]

we wouldn't have rock n roll without Little Richard

[@Timetravller1]

I think you mean we wouldn't have Rock n Roll if it were not for Sister Rosetta Tharpe

[@cfc326]

@Timetravller1 no I mean exactly what I said.

[@Timetravller1]

@@cfc326 maybe you should go back and do some research then because she was doing rock and roll in 1945

[@cfc326]

@Timetravller1 I know who she is. This video is about Little Richard.

[@joangravel2436]

Thanks awesome video I enjoyed watching

[@roknrolbilly]

THANKS JORDAN.......WHAT A LEGEND!

[@MomWere45]

Merry Christmas 🎅 and happy new year ❤thank you for this video he certainly was something else.

[@JamesAllmond]

Unfortunately it is closed. It is a shame the folks running the house and foundation mis-managed it so bad. Hopefully it will be opened again soon (I live in Macon). Find Alan Walden's stories about his encounters with little Richard when he was a kid. They are hilarious. Alan later managed Otis Redding and (early on) Lynyrd Skynyrd among others. IF you can find it, there is a video of Pat Boone, Jerry Lee lewis and Little Richard (Jerry and Richard sharing the keys) singing their rock songs, then Pat belted out Tutti Fruitti the way it was written, all 3 of them were singing at the end... Find it if you can, it is amazing. Well done Jordan, thanks for coming by my town. If you saw a sidecar, that was probably me.

[@JamesAllmond]

"Performance venue"! Wow, that's putting it nicely (laughs the guy from Macon)...

[@jeanmetzger9359]

What a great talent.

[@danlove4270]

He was an inspiration…we all wanna be who we are like it or not

[@TomTengelsen]

Lived and worked in and around Macon over 60 years and still never been … seems crazy I know

[@cobra935o]

I live just up the road, McDonough GA. You going to see any of the Allman Brothers sites there as well? Lots of Awesome stuff to do in Macon, but be safe.

[@mikejames-drummerreginacan1386]

Great video.....interesting. Little Richard kind of scared me as a kid as he was so hyper and was kind of "out there" during interviews.....likely the coke...lol. Merry Christmas from Saskatchewan Canada.

[@michaelcoffey7362]

Nice 🥰

[@bryonhogg485]

He was a pretty charismatic preacher if you watch some of those clips

[@johngomes4278]

Very interesting story 🎉

[@alancumming6407]

Thank you Jordan for stopping here. Little Richard was a dynamic and talented individual and your biography really did him justice. It might be the house is too small to host a museum? But it was just so great to see it. This was a real treat Jordan, it has put me in the mood to listen to some Little Richard this evening. Great vlog.

[@alyssa_chuck]

It closed back in June this year according to google.

[@Sayres434]

The Allman brothers are buried in Macon also. Rose Hill cemetery. Ton of history there.

[@DazewithJordantheLion]

Ive shown their graves a few times

[@catherine6653]

That is a cute little yellow house?. I glad you showed the piano through the window.

[@aimeemoore1094]

Such a nice looking man

[@bryonhogg485]

He was on a talk show - Said he was offered 50 % of the Beatles

[@Elizabeth-bo1ul]

My Dad lived in Macon for awhile. They had Little Richard’s piano at a local museum and anyone could sit at it. A fun photo opportunity

[@ilanarhian]

Hi Jordan, I found a news video from June saying that the house was closed 'indefinitely' due to some financial problem. I guess it still is :(

[@FrankensteinLover]

What a crazyyyy story, this was very interesting.

[@TheCrackerBox]

Great video ! Thank you brother !

[@stmn346]

Merry Christmas 🎄 everyone

[@GeeAitch-r1r]

Just last night the Pee Wee Herman Christmas Special popped up on here. I had never seen it before. Little Richard makes an appearance... short, but it was great. Then today, this showed up. Great video as always!

[@SueProv]

I remember watching a KZbin video of Little Richard on the late 90s interview on Donny and Marie. He spoke about his dad aand really cried at one point. and acted traumatized. They weren't pushing the negativity but it was an eye opening moment. Marie was very kind.

[@stephentse481]

RIP Little Richard He was legendary

Cool stuff

[@skydiver8163]

Macon/Bibb County stop funding the house so that's why it's closed right now. That isn't the original location. The house was moved from 5th Avenue.

[@claudiarobinson587]

Hi Jordon, you are in my area. I wish I had known.

[@WoodsboroPunk]
