My sister just shared this video clip via e-mail. Oh, it’s a good one! Even if you don’t play the piano, you’ll like watching Little Richard (“Tutti Frutti, oh, Rudy….”) as a little kid.
UPDATE: Cousin Leane sent this link in response to my post. This isn’t the first time one of my links turned out to be bogus. This video is not bogus, but turns out it isn’t really Little Richard after all. Thanks for keeping me honest, Leane.
Well, I passed it on to our family and wouldn’t you know it our dear Jason put his computer knowledge and music interest to work and found this most interesting article about this child prodigy, Frank “Sugar Chile” Robinson. It’s a fascinating article and the Amusicology blog looks interesting.
