...
Little Richard, Richard Wayne Penniman, was was an American singer, pianist, and songwriter. He was an influential figure in popular music and culture for seven decade and has been called the "Architect of Rock and Roll".
His most recognized and celebrated work is from the mid-1950s, when his flamboyant showmanship and dynamic music, characterized by frenetic piano playing, pounding back beat and powerful raspy vocals, laid the foundation for rock and roll. His innovative emotive vocalizations and uptempo rhythmic music played a key role in the formation of other popular music genres, including soul and funk. In an interview, The Beatles mentioned him as an inspiration for some of the vocalizations in their hits songs most notably in their falsetto "woos woos" and repetitive "yeah, yeah yeahs' that can be heard in tunes like "She Loves You", and "From Me To You". But where Richard's "woo" is harsh and aggressive, the Beatles' "woo" is softer and cuddlier - it contributes to their cute, mop top appeal, whereas Little Richard's contributes to his charismatic and at times hysterical performances.
