"Little Richard" Wayne Penniman
Born 5 December 1932 in Macon, Georgia, USA
After I moved into Studio Z, Don Van Vliet came to visit. I made some recordings with him then which predated the Beefheart Magic Band. The group was called The Soots. Some of the songs were
Metal Man Has Won His Wings Cheryl's Canon and a cover version of the Little Richard song Slippin' and Slidin' (as if sung by the Howlin' Wolf).
Composer of Directly From My Heart To You
At the funeral of Charles Brown Little Richard was among the honorary pallbearers.
