Near Atlanta, GA but not too near!
I know there are some (many? Most?) on this forum who remember him.

This video is of Little Richard when he was about 4 years old!!!

It's Richard Wayne Penniman (aka Little Richard) about fifteen years before "Tutti Frutti, Oh, Rudy."A-whop bop-a-lu bop a-whop bam boom.

Here is some very rare footage of "Little Richard" as a child, when he was just starting out in the music biz'

... From a movie with Van Johnson and Keenan Wynne ...

Not only does he play incredibly well, much of it is with him NOT looking at the keyboard !!
