Little Richard Amazing Interview 1970's R.I.P.

[@francoisbessing]

We did not deserve him. I have been having a very hard time in life and trying to find myself and my happiness and I haven't known laughter from the heart in years. While watching this I toppled on the ground laughing and my sides hurt. This man was an angel sent by God to show us "what's good".

[@beatricewoods8377]

I look at this so many times I love it and him

[@kiasky1]

Richard was a character. When he started singing the opera I screamed. 😂😂 Rest In Heaven Richard.

[@lorebay2593]

Almag, Faris you late in the game, Richard struggled a great while, he knew he was gifted by the Lord to spread love and joy, and guess what satan knew that too and tried to stop him from his mission, but later when he became born again truly he denounced it and tried to live his best life. He understood that he just had to surrender to GOD. He has many messages here, he talked about that and everything else. He grew and gave several stirring messages, don’t skip his last message.

Interesting though, that while Richard was extolling his virtues, his free-form love, his hiding nothing, etc...he never mentions that he is gay!...I mean, he even got it on with Brian Epstein, the Beatles manager, while touring with them!...Whatever, this man was so important to the evolution of Rock and Roll, he was the equal to Elvis, etc.

Little Richard was a *COURAGEOUS* man

[@geraldtanderson9044]

Little Richard wasn't taking no back seat to nobody! Chuck Berry...I call him Blackberry! I'm gonna mash him! LMAO! He truly was the King of Rock n Roll! Not only did he have an influence on a multitude of Rock performers who owe him a lot, but he was so genuine! He never made up any kind of excuse for how he carried out his life in the way he dressed, acted, talked, sang, carried out his sex life, drugs or how he loved the Lord. It takes a lot of courage to be so open about every aspect of yourself, knowing the re precautions that can take place when you lay your soul to bare for all the world to see. It never worried him...never bothered him. He had faith in the Lord through all of his trials and tribulations. We could all learn a lot from his example. He was also a very kind and humble person. I was fortunate to have met him in 2003 and he could've chewed me up and spit me out when I unfortunately tried to get him to sign a "Bootleg" album of his. I didn't know it was a "bootleg". My heart sank. He never belittled me or caused me any more embarrassment than I was already under. He treated me with respect and offered to send me an original album of his. He gave me his personal address and sent me on my way. He lifted me up, when he could have tore me down. I have nothing but love and deep respect for him. Meeting him has been a highlight in my life and I spread the word about him. That's how Little Richard spread the love of God. We are all going to miss him in our world, but we can learn so much from him. Be true to yourself and to God. Love and miss you...R.I.P. Richard.

I luv the facial expression, from eyes to smile, Little Richard shows the interviewer when Little Richard slows down & softens the piano playing right before the interview starts.... Is Little Richard seducing us as fans & non-fans with talent across the board, yes, it's working very well.... Lol.... You can see & hear that "God" must have been having a lazy day and or recovering from a hangover when creating Richard Wayne Penniman's soul due to, "just give him every performance-arts* talent, EVERY!!"..... *comedic, sanging, instrument playing, ASMRing, acting, attractiveness, unlimited stamina & energy, storytelling, etc

[@martinasteiner8080]

I really love and adore Elvis, I always have. The same time I also loved Little Richard's Music since I was a child, but now I know more about him, learned that he was the Originator of Rock'n'Roll, and should have been known as the King of Rock'n'Roll, even though this would mean that there would have been no Elvis Presley, at least no white King of Rock'n'Roll... I love this interview as many others, the way he lets his personality and his beauty and talent shine. The interviewer seems a bit overwhelmed with so much Little Richard :D
