About a pioneer in rock and roll-Hipefully this will be up to standards this time.

Great! Clicking on 'Lucille' had me dancing away!

Nitpick: In the 2nd paragraph, as you're using parethesis (), you don't need commas as well

well, now mama, papa, told me son you better watch your step-...when you're rockin' and a rollin' can't you hear your mama call- good golly Miss Molly

Love it Shagbark

Good luck this time
just one query - the word Specialty is American English I think - we brits tend to say Speciality - but please correct me any better grammarians out there?

This is shaping up nicely.

Just a few nitpicks

<> should be '5 December, 1932,'

Full stop directly after name no space before it

I think there are links to be had such as one on Elvis Presley

<> should be '12 January,1952,'

<> should be 'later'

Be careful with Americanisms and their translation to English
And be aware that numbers over ten should be written out like 11, 12, 13 etc

Footnotes come directly after the last word. There is no gap.

In my opinion footnote 2 is unnecessary you would be better off writing 'In The Life and times of Little Richard the Quasar of Rock by Charles White he is quoted as saying.....'

Do you know who this 'one person' was?

Keep Writing

I am using Specialty because that is the official name of the recording studio. Perhaps I fporgot to capitalize it?

>> The thing I like about Richard's ministry, is that he never pushes a person. He just shows them what God has done for him. and that is a beautiful philosophy.<< that is quoted from his biography I do not know who said it.
I am not aware of what amaricanisms Opti is referring to unless it is
awap bop a loomop (I know you clean a loo with one if that is what he meant)

didn't we used to have a smiley for ??

Here is a link to Specialty Records
should I put it in the article?
http://www.history-of-rock.com/specialty.htm

Yes, sorry Shagbark, it was the Header 'Specialty Recording' that I thought looked odd. So used to reading British English you see. I think the link is needed, and perhaps a revision on the Header, maybe just 'Specialty Records' as that is the name of a company.

Header changed, link added. Got to RL calling. I'll check back on this tommorrow .

shagbark returns

I see we have completed our standard incubation period.
Anyone see improvements to be made?

Link to Cocaine article added .

good golly Miss Molly are the changes done?

This is a definite improvement on the original submission. Well done, Shagbark

Americanisms like 'neighborhood' should be changed to English spelling
