Little Richard – The Explosive Little Richard

The Explosive Little Richard captures one of rock & roll’s founding legends in full late-60s soul mode.

Released on Okeh Records in 1967, this album blends Little Richard’s signature high-energy vocals with a tighter, soul-influenced production style. It features standout versions of:

• “Land of a Thousand Dances”
• “Money”
• “Poor Dog (Who Can’t Wag His Own Tail)”
• “I Need Love”
• “Never Gonna Let You Go”

This era shows Richard leaning into R&B and soul arrangements while still delivering the raw, dynamic presence that made him a pioneer of rock music.

A strong collectible for fans of early rock & roll legends, soul crossover records, and 1960s Okeh pressings.
