I believe that Little Richard did a version of these.

You are right along with others. He was born in 37 and died in 1980 shot himself. He lived a bad life as a pimp and drug addict. He wrote numerous songs that were done by many artists including the Beatles.

Little Richard (Richard Penniman) was born in 1932 in Macon, Georgia and died in 2020 of bone cancer. After rock and roll he commited himself to the ministry and recorded gospel music. Hardly the "pimp amd drug addict" type although, like many other artists of his day, he did have problems with alcohol and drug addiction but beat these. He was known as "the King and Queen of Rock and Roll". Others referred to him as "the originator, the innovator, the quasar". Pancake make-up and flamboyance aside, he was truly on of the original all-time greats of rock and roll.

LR was one of my favorites back in his heyday. I bought a transistor radio in 1957 in the 7th grade and a lot of girls wanted to hang with me then that wouldn’t look twice at me. I wasn’t much into girls until the 8th grade. I had a sister 4 years older than me that got me interested in music and girls when her best friend would spend the night, she was a total fox!!!

There was still segregation back then so there were "black radio staions" and "white stations". That is why there were so many cover songs such as Pat Boone covering Fats Domino's Blueberry Hill or the clean cut white Crew Cuts covering the original Sh- Boom by the Chords. Today's young would be surprised by our not-too-distant history.

Had to think about that one for awhile. I finally remembered part of the song. Now I have it stuck in my head 🙃
