I so much wish this interview could have been hours. Craig's humor, respect, and understanding towards Little Richard, and then of course the wonderfully amazing, talented, intelligent Little Richard himself. This brief five minutes is a treasure. Thanks Craig!
I saw Little Richard live sometime after this or thereabouts. I think he said he was 73 at the time. Big fan all my life and he did not disappoint. Still the great entertainer, singer, and showman. RIP Little Richard. And thanks for the upload. Big thumbs up.
One of a kind...there will never be another. And no, he never received the money or the accolades he earned...the hard way. RIP to the Architect of it all.
Little Richard has always been an inspiration to me. This is a man who had the talent, the energy, the sense of humor and the raw chutzpah to become the star that he is. To me, there have been imitators but no-one has duplicated his influence on music and culture - and yet he was as southern down-home as anyone could be. He could sing a uptempo song with frenetic energy and a slower, softer song with an unmatched soulfulness. His voice was like a well-played tenor saxophone. I get gooseflesh every time I hear him song. I am grateful that he was in the world and that he lived a long life.
Me, too ! he was an endlessly interesting person. He had a joyful presence. I'm glad I knew of him and his music. I just love watching his interviews. He can definitely captivate a person and hold their attention
One of my goals after getting deep into the golden era of rock and roll during the late 80-90s was to see all these Kings of the original rock and roll era play live. I will always regret not seeing Little Richard. He was a treasure
You kind of have it backwards no? He's famous for his singing voice, not for his whacky talking. It's all a show eh? He wasn't really like how you see him on TV in real life. But his voice!! That guy could sing the phone book! wow.
@@novamuziq2284 Your right. The entertainment industry is demonic. Little Richard denounced all that. He was an evangelist later in life and the media demons never talk about that, but you best believe that Little Richard left this Earth a changed man and more importantly, a SAVED man.
From Prince's Rolling Stone interview 2004: "When I meet with a label now, they already know they're not going to be owning anything. Maybe at one time they could get Little Richard for a new car and a bucket of chicken. We don't roll like that no more." Simultaneously taking a shot at the record industry and marginalization of segregation. Little Richard was more concerned that we know he's vegetarian.
I agree: very disrespectful: not impressed with Prince (even though I loved his music): Little Richard was a total, true gentleman & a massive star in every sense of the word!!! My dad & I both loved him to bits: they are both in Heaven now!!! 😇📖👼💙💖👑💎👑💎
When ACDC was looking for a replacement of Bon Scott, they selected Brian Johson among several singers who auditioned for the job. The reason: He sounded very much like Little Richard. This showed the immense popularity of Little Richard all over the world.
It must have been very cool to know and be friends with Little Richard. He always seemed as genuine as a human could be. And a hell of a lot of fun to be around. "SHUT UP!" :-)
Man, I remember watching him as kid in the early 70's, with my moms and thought he looked strange. Never knew about artist's and their gimmick or brand as a kid. But man he paved the way for so many legends. Rest in peace. Mr. Penniman.
His was a beautiful man. They all revered him. The Beatles, especially Paul, Mick, Bowie. Yes he was definitely the architect of Rock& Roll? Just think, Hendrix, Billy Preston, James Brown, Joe Tex were all in HIS band. Good golly miss Molly. Chew on that for a while??? One of a kind, there will never be another!
Jimi Hendrix. Otis Redding. James Brown. The Beatles. Rolling Stones. You can see where Prince got his act from. Countless and countless and countless number of super stars.
There truly is a great gulf between the truly talented and the mediocre , today too many are ready give a standing ovation to the latter, and this encourages more of the same . Little Richard was an innovator , and a brave one , a genuine star of high order who by contrast deserved fully his every accolade.
Little Richard took Prince's words out of context. This is what he said to Rolling Stone: "When I meet with a label now, they already know they're not going to be owning anything. Maybe at one time they could get Little Richard for a new car and a bucket of chicken. We don't roll like that no more." - Prince, Rolling Stone, 2004
Yeah! I thought so too. Even though you may disagree with someone, you still should respect your elders. Especially when they helped pave the way for artist like himself.
Just saw this, I began admiring little Richard when Bruno Mars paid tribute to him, also I admired Craig normally he will make fun of his guest but you can see in this interview he was very respectful it reminded me when he interviewed Desmond Tutu wow truly both of them have made their mark in the industry. RIP Mr Richard and Craig you always know and recognise people with so much impact in our lives
Nobody knows that Beatles Orenes up for Little Richard wayback un Hamburg early days...talking about racism...Thank God for that BLACK TALENT like L.R. !!!!!!!
Nice to see that Craig Furguson should be giving Geography lessons to the Americans as to where Scotland is , not Little Richard who has travelled a lot .
He had bone cancer and he was up there in age 87 !!! and then so everyone can get it also he had been in bad health for over 10 years with his hip issue and sciatica .

R.I.P. Richard, the true King of R & R.
You’ll always be missed !❤
💯
I liked it that Craig gave him full acknowledgement as the architect of rock n roll and even did a little bow when he greeted him.
Craigy ferg has a vast knowledge of music for sure
I saw Little Richard live sometime after this or thereabouts. I think he said he was 73 at the time. Big fan all my life and he did not disappoint.
Still the great entertainer, singer, and showman. RIP Little Richard.
And thanks for the upload. Big thumbs up.
You can tell Little Richard was such a sweet man & fun to hang out with 😄. Rest In Peace Little Richard Architect Rock and roll🎹🎼🎤
yes, can you imagine. I would have loved to have met him
Good gentle heart.
THAT IS A BAAAADDDDD JACKET RICHARD HAS ON! THAT MAN REALLY KNEW HOW TO DRESS! AND DRESS WELL!!!
What a beautiful man Little Richard was. Such a genius!
One of a kind...there will never be another. And no, he never received the money or the accolades he earned...the hard way. RIP to the Architect of it all.
Yes and Elvis never thank the Architect.
sad. but true
True, a shame
He won a big law suit so he got some back even if not the full amount.
Thank you, Macon, for letting Richard get out of town alive. He loved you for it.

His interview never disappoint love him
Little Richard was the progenitor of it all he was the beginning of Pop music
LMAO! "i don't know what oven it was but it sure was cookin!" Too funny
Great interview, I never was a big fan of Little Richard's singing, but always fun to listen to him talk. A great showman. RIP Richard.
Compared to the other founding fathers (Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly and Jerry Lee Lewis) he had the best voice
You kind of have it backwards no? He's famous for his singing voice, not for his whacky talking. It's all a show eh? He wasn't really like how you see him on TV in real life. But his voice!! That guy could sing the phone book! wow.
@@Bluzian74 That shit goes through me. LUCIIIIIIIILE!!!! Magic
We recently lost him, and you hardly heard about it. That's terrible, after all he contributed.
Because he chose God …. They don’t want to promote that

That was VERY disrespectful of Prince. Especially considering he owes his whole style to this Legend.

Love Prince, brilliant musician but he was not above shading other greats
Why would Prince be so mean to Little Richard? Little Richard clearly influenced him in all things.
A VERY TRAGIC LOSS TO THIS SPECIAL MAN. RIP BROTHER.
They really don't make'em like they used to. His mind still sharp to recall such events that happened in his youth. Amazing
Love hearing that history and Little Richard is so funny
I truly believe Little Richard was a genius. And he was definitely among the very best of the greatest early rock and roll musicians.
Little Richard is Beautiful I like his piano music
Amazing voice, unbeatable in R&B and soul.
A great man. And a godly man. RIP Richard.
I'm going to truly miss this legend..r.i.p
The Originator himself! I could listen to him all day, bruddah is hilarious! And, very smart!
''If they did that to me now I would scream like a white woman!!''.

exactly
I would've loved to have Little Richard tell me to shut up. Lol.
I would blush.
SHUT UP.
The King Little Richard
"Shut Up"
Great showman

"Shut up" he is Muhammed Ali in Rock'n'roll. Great singer and musician on piano.
John Astrup the piano playing reminds me of Liberace they're both very talented in different ways just observation.
Right, dress like "Lee" and I enjoy LIBERACE .
@@johnastrup1549 little richard was first though so muhammed ali is the little richard of boxing
@@andrewbintang4591 My dad & I loved them both!!! 😇❤💙💗
Jimi Hendrix.
Otis Redding.
James Brown.
The Beatles.
Rolling Stones.
You can see where Prince got his act from.
Countless and countless and countless number of super stars.
Bob Dylan adored him and started out wanting to be Little Richard.
The originator
The emancipater
The proclimater
THE KING👑

He was hilarious. RIP Mr Pettiman
Didn’t expect something like that from prince but I get why he said cause he’s from the south and prince isn’t but I love them both
G.O.A.T
Only to a low IQ fool like you
EU TAMBÉM SOU FÃ DO REI DO ROCK ! POR FAVIR DUBLEM ESTA LINDA ENTREVISTA COM O LIL RICHARDS ! OBRIGADO !
that was cold re prince
Yeah! I thought so too. Even though you may disagree with someone, you still should respect your elders. Especially when they helped pave the way for artist like himself.

His gospel singing was his best work
RIP Little Richard
He looks like a king here. THE King.
I LOVE Little Richard ♥♥♥
@6:24 I wonder if this is where Prince got the idea for 'Black Sweat' which has the lyric "scream like a White lady"
Nobody knows that Beatles Orenes up for Little Richard wayback un Hamburg early days...talking about racism...Thank God for that BLACK TALENT like L.R. !!!!!!!
I love hes sound of voice Before I thought he was from another Country. No one is like little Richad .
Beautiful man. 😢
He was a hoot
Nice to see that Craig Furguson should be giving Geography lessons to the Americans as to where Scotland is , not Little Richard who has travelled a lot .
Prince never said that "they paid little richard with a bucket of kfc", come on... little richard is making it up...
Rolling Stone's Prince interview 2004.
LR sang in drag in church as a teen. A first.
Probably not the last
He loved Prince, that comment hurt his feelings.
What's so crazy... Is that there are receipts for EVERYTHING he ever said about such matters.
Let's lighten up bout' the chicken remark. I think Richard just said it to set up his vegetarian joke. Him and Prince were tight.
How are you doing today my name is Eric moore
6:15 - 6:30😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😂
He went back and forth from being a straight evangelist. I guess this was one of the times he left it
Me gustaría saber qué dice en la entrevista, que pudieran traducir lo que dice Little Richard
Puedo pero mucho luego. Necessito tiempo.
,,The King"
Muhammad Ali
Vive le Rock
Little Richard is hilarious! Shame he spoke ill of Prince , although I have no doubt Prince could've been mean too.
We're they saying boo
‘Shut up!’ R.I.P. Sir.
Ferguson reminds me of Eddie Tenpole.
Prince will never admit he copied this dude here. Little Richard is the inventor and founder of Rock, hence every awesomeusic that came along.
He also won’t admit to copying Jimi. ..
@@revekat2053 True that
God damn! He really burried Princess there!!! Good on him!
Well I've watched about 8 interviews of him getting every decade and it's the same guy with the same stories. And he didn't even look different
Sometimes can tolerate Craig Furguson not this interview with Little Richard
Missin him
So what happened to the end of the show? You could have at least played the song. . .
Interview and music posted separately
@@ClevelandLiveMusic oh ok. I figured it out from the title. Thank you, good interview.
Cool...glad you enjoyed it. Keep on watching

Praying that everyone conducts themselves responsibly
How are you doing today my name is Eric moore
He read prince lol
The mask.....
I've seen three different interviews.. there good ... but he basically says the same things
Like a relative each Holiday
And they don't admit they're copying liberace !!
Part 2....th-cam.com/video/v_TBiK2Lev4/w-d-xo.html
Such an amazing personality and artist, but never got the credit he deserved (from the rip off music business)
Sorry. I am angry.
He should have been on the late late late late show, that way we wouldn’t have to watch him at all.
He’s confirming that Prince was probably gay.🤔
All one has to do is listen to little richard speak. And then you understand how emotionally unstable and troubled he was.
A one trick pony.
How are you doing today my name is Eric moore
If he was a vegetarian how did he get cancer??
Ummm you can still get cancer but about 20% less likely to.
E 202 ok thank you, you could have told me in a better way, instead of the condescending tone of how you have written it.
He had bone cancer and he was up there in age 87 !!! and then so everyone can get it also he had been in bad health for over 10 years with his hip issue and sciatica .
@@macleatakirkwood6516 I think your comment was understandable. Studies have a way of being confusing or misleading.
Anybody can get cancer including vegetarians, what a silly question.
