In which Little Richard settles the question. And sets to dancing visions of sugar plum slash.

There's an amazing clip of Mr. Richard playing Rip It Up at his cleanest and most Christian, though the ripper saxes belie the shortness of his hair and the heterosexual Guidoness of his suit. Yow.

So fun to see Little Richard taking the little European children to church. Where they promptly lost their shit.
I couldn't even watch the Tom Jones clip. I was that afraid of the lameness.

oh, p.s., he claims in the autobio i'm reading to have been the first star at whom the little euro children threw their panties. like it was 1953 when the first panty sailed thru the air toward mr. richard. i believe it.

It's not lame! It is actually kind of sweet. Tom gets sent to school in the gentlest way. "Chicken, meet Mama EGG."
