And the big mystery is - why hasn't there been a reunion with Paul and Little Richard? Google 'Paul McCartney duets' and you will find a long list of well known singers (Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Tony Bennett,etc..) who did duets with Macca. Little Richard is conspicuously absent. Maybe there is no public interest in seeing Macca and Richard together, singing "Long Tall Sally" ? After 50 years of Little Richard being referenced as a major influence? . Hmm..
Has any Beatle shared the stage with Little Richard in the last 50 years?

I have wondered about Little Richard and Chuck Berry. They in many ways invented Rock and Roll and I can not see evidence that they were replaced (if anyone has some comparison pics I would love to see them). The reason that MacFake has never performed with them (never seen him perform with Chuck berry either) is because the contrast between a third rate hack like MacFake and greats like Berry and Little Richard (and AC/DC for that matter) is so great that the shock would be to much for the "Macca worshipers" to take, lol. That leads me to another question: why do many people on this website seem to worship MacFake so much when the basic premise is "Paul was Replaced". Why worship someone who is such a fake?

Are you sure about that? a major influence
influence (n.) late 14c., an astrological term, "streaming ethereal power from the stars acting upon character or destiny of men," from Old French influence "emanation from the stars that acts upon one's character and destiny" (13c.), also "a flow of water," from Medieval Latin influentia "a flowing in" (also used in the astrological sense), from Latin influentem (nominative influens), present participle of influere "to flow into," from in- "into, in, on, upon" (see in- (2)) + fluere "to flow" (see fluent). Getting back to where I once belonged!lol

Getting back to where I once belonged!lol I am not SURE about ANYTHING and that is why this stuff is so interesting! Those two videos are good but compare the MacFake video with "The Beatles" doing "Lucille" in the BBC sessions in 1963 (Youtube is FANTASTIC)! JPM is ON FIRE with THE BEST Little Richard imitations I have ever heard and the 1963 "Beatles" are a SMOKIN' BAND! And look at the "Let it Be"version and you will see it STUNK! That in a nutshell why MacFake so irritating. The early 60's JPM and The Beatles were a SMOKIN HOT rock and roll band and MacFake is just trying to live on that reputation. Look at the 1973 version of Little Richard doing "Lucille" and he has gotten BETTER. So the early 60's JPM was FANTASTIC and MacFake is inconsistant at best.

One thing you should get sure about and fast is Lucille like a rolling stone the FBI and the CIA the BBC BB King Door is Day matt Busby and now I'd like to play "Hark the Angles Come" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle

There are many interviews where Little Richard talks about getting ripped off by labels and publishers for the songs he wrote. In my mind that would make him a prime candidate for selling a song outright, for cash. In this interview, at 12:30 he talks about the Beatles, and he says that Epstein offered him a percentage if he would take a tape back to the US. If it's true, this is a business proposition rather than a casual conversation. It sounds like they were on 'business terms'. To speculate, how hard would it be for Richard to write something like "Well she was just seventeen, you know what I mean" etc? and sell it outright. At this time the Beatles were unknowns.
Is it possible that Little Richard wrote this?
is That is the reason he was kept at arms length for 50 years?
At least we know he had the means (talent for writing hit songs), motive (money), and opportunity (he was There)
