From a Greyhound bus station kitchen in 1955, Little Richard banged out the explosive 'A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop-a-lop-bam-boom!' while washing dishes. What started as a raunchy, suggestive anthem with lyrics like 'Tutti Frutti, good booty' was quickly cleaned up by Dorothy LaBostrie to become rock 'n' roll's wild breakthrough hit. But success came with a price: terrible record deals, publishing rights sold for just $50, and covers by Pat Boone and Elvis that outsold the original—leaving the true King of Rock 'n' Roll ripped off by the music industry machine.
