Little Richard - Poor Dog / A Little Bit of Something (7" Single)

N/A

Little Richard (born Richard Wayne Penniman) needs "€œlittle"€ introduction to the UK soul fan, having enjoyed a string of Northern Soul collectables on Vee-Jay, Kent, Modern, Brunswick and, of course, Okeh. He is perhaps most fondly remembered for his floorshaker I Don'€™t Want to Discuss It, although our two featured classics must come close. Both Poor Dog and A Little Bit of Something have cult status having originally been spun on the embryonic Northern/Mod scene at the legendary Twisted Wheel club in Manchester. Wigan Casino DJ Dave Evison revived Poor Dog as a Mr M's Oldie before taking it downstairs to the main ballroom where it cemented its Hall of Fame legacy.
