Little Richard was one of the most popular and crucial figures in rock n' roll's early days with such cornerstone mid-’50s hits as “Tutti Frutti” and “Long Tall Sally.”  At SXSW 2004, he was both the Music Keynote and headliner of BMI’s music showcase. During his Keynote interview, he offered advice to aspiring musicians with one of his trademark tirades/sermons, debunked the myth that the lyrics to “Good Golly, Miss Molly” were about sex, and generally displayed the same flamboyant personality that characterized his seven-decade-long career.
