Reseña

El debut del autoproclamado "Arquitecto del Rock and Roll" es una de las obras más importantes y explosivas de la historia, y el pilar fundamental de la discografía de Little Richard. "Here's Little Richard", de 1957, no es solo un álbum; es el sonido del Big Bang, una colección de canciones que definieron la energía, la actitud y la sexualidad del rock and roll de una manera que cambió la música para siempre.

Por esta razón, el impacto del disco fue de una magnitud incalculable. En una época en la que el rock aún estaba naciendo, Little Richard lo inyectó con una energía salvaje y sin precedentes. De hecho, su estilo de piano martilleante, que provenía del boogie-woogie, y sus gritos agudos y llenos de falsete, que venían del góspel, crearon una fórmula incendiaria.

Además, el álbum es una colección impecable de himnos inmortales. "Tutti Frutti", "Long Tall Sally", "Slippin' and Slidin'", "Rip It Up", "Jenny, Jenny"... Prácticamente todas las canciones del disco se han convertido en clásicos que han sido versionados por incontables artistas, desde Elvis Presley hasta The Beatles. Consecuentemente, el álbum es una máquina de éxitos.

En definitiva, "Here's Little Richard" es mucho más que un disco; es un documento fundacional. Es la prueba sonora de que Little Richard no exageraba al llamarse a sí mismo el arquitecto del género. Por lo tanto, su importancia trasciende la música para convertirse en un hito cultural, una escucha obligada para entender el origen de todo.

letra de Ready Teddy
Ready, set, go man go,

I got a girl that I love so,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready to rock 'n' roll.

Going to the corner, pick up my sweetie pie,

She's my rock 'n' roll baby, she's the apple of my eye,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready to rock 'n' roll.

All the flat top cats and the dungaree dolls,

Are headed for the gym to the sock hop ball,

The joint is really jumpin', the cats are going wild,

The music really sends me, I dig that crazy style,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready to rock 'n' roll.

Gonna kick off my shoes, roll up my faded jeans,

Grab my rock 'n' roll baby, pour on the steam,

I shuffle to the left, I shuffle to the right,

Gonna rock 'n' roll to the early, early night,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready teddy,

I'm ready, ready, ready to rock 'n' roll.

letra de Miss Ann
Oh, oh, oh, Miss Ann, you're doin' something no-one can,

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Miss Ann, you're doin' something no-one can,

Because believin' and deceivin', it's drivin' me to grievin' now.

I wanna hear, hear, hear Miss Ann, I wanna hear her call my name,

I wanna hear, hear, hear Miss Ann, I wanna hear her call my name,

Because she keep callin' loud, but she calls it so sweet and so plain.

Well, I told Miss Ann once, and I told Miss Ann twice,

Yes, I told Miss Ann once, and I told Miss Ann twice,

Boys, when I'm with Miss Ann, I'm livin' in paradise.

If she thinks I'm gonna let her be free, how wrong can Miss Ann be,

If she thinks I'm gonna let her be free, how wrong can Miss Ann be,

I'm in love with Miss Ann, and that's the way it's gonna be.

letra de Oh Why?
I dreamed I was arrested

Charged with a crime

Forgot to plead innocent

'Cause darling, you're not mine

Oh why?

Why should it happen to me?

Well, I'm fine with it

Have mercy on me

The policeman said maybe

The judge he can agree

The jury keep on guessing

But the DA says it's me

Oh why?

Why should it happen to me?

Well, I'm fine with it

Have mercy on me

The lawyer said, plead guilty

And try to cop a plea

But why should I try plead guilty

When you don't belongs to me?

Oh why?

Why should it happen to me?

Well, I'm fine, have mercy

Have mercy on me

The policeman said maybe

The judge he can agree

The jury keep on guessing

But the DA says it's me

Oh why?

Why should it happen to me?

Well, I'm fine with it

Have mercy on me

letra de Rip It Up
Well, it's Saturday night and I just got paid,

Fool about my money, don't try to save,

My heart says go go, have a time,

Saturday night and I'm feelin' fine,

I'm gonna rock it up, I'm gonna rip it up,

I'm gonna shake it up, gonna ball it up,

I'm gonna rock it up, and ball tonight.

Got me a date and I won't be late,

Picked her up in my 88,

Shag on down by the union hall,

When the joint starts jumpin' I'll have a ball,

I'm gonna rock it up...

'Long about ten I'll be flying high,

Walk on out unto the sky,

But I don't care if I spend my dough,

'Cause tonight I'm gonna be one happy soul,

I'm gonna rock it up...
