Class of 1959

We, the Class of 1959, celebrated our 50th reunion on April 24 and 25, 2009. This blog is about sharing memories of our class reunions and a long-ago life at our Alma Mater, S.F.X.A. and S.A.H.S. Good memories of days gone by but not forgotten! A gift to my classmates. ~Marian Ann Love ~

Little Richard - When He Was Little!

Our classmate, Walter Little, sent this to me today and wanted to share it with y'all.
  
Walter said...Watch how he uses his fists and elbows and doesn't even look at the keys when he sings! This is amazing to see. It's Richard Wayne Penniman (aka Little Richard) about fifteen years before "Tutti Frutti, Oh, Rudy...."A-whop bop-a-lu bop a-whop bam boom!"

Here is some very rare footage of "Little Richard" as a child, when he was just starting out in the music biz', from a movie with Van Johnson.
