Lucille (Little Richard song)
"Lucille" is a 1957 rock and roll song which originally recorded by Little Richard. Released on Specialty Records in February 1957, the single reached number 1 on the Billboard R&B chart, 21 on the US pop chart,〔Jay Warner, ''On this Day in Black Music History'' (Hal Leonard Corporation, 2006), (84 ).〕 and number 10 on the UK chart. It was composed by Albert Collins (not to be confused with the blues guitarist of the same name) and Little Richard. First pressings of Specialty 78rpm credit Collins as the sole writer. Little Richard bought half of the song's rights while Collins was in Louisiana State prison (Angola).
The song foreshadowed the rhythmic feel of 1960s rock music in several ways, including its heavy bassline, slower tempo, strong rock beat played by the entire band, and verse–chorus form similar to blues. The scene-setting sections also feature stop-time breaks and no change in harmony, and it has a darker sound because most of the instruments use a low register.〔Michael Campbell & James Brody (2007), ''Rock and Roll: An Introduction'', (page 117 )〕
==Cover versions==
As a rock standard, it has been covered (both in studio recordings and live performances) by many artists, including AC/DC, Status Quo, Wings, The Beatles, Sha Na Na, Mud, The Hollies, The Animals, Paul McCartney, Van Halen, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Winter, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Peter & Gordon, Queen, Deep Purple, the Ian Gillan Band, The Sweet, The Everly Brothers, Bill Haley & His Comets, Otis Redding, The Sonics, John Entwistle of The Who, and the Detroit band The Rockets. It was also covered by Status Quo as part of their ''Anniversary Waltz, Pt. 1''. John Lennon and Paul McCartney sang the song together during a jam session in 1974, which can be heard on the bootleg ''A Toot and a Snore in '74'', marking the only known occasion where the former songwriting team performed together after the bitter breakup of The Beatles.
