Little Richard’s Saxophone Player?

[Ronnie Niles]

I was wondering who Little Richard’s Saxophone player was/what was his name–does anyone know? That isn’t Lee Allen, is it? I love this Saxophone solo!

[Leo Salu]

Grady Gaines played with little Richard in the fifties might be him.

Lee Allen did do this solo….the band is just lip-syncing to the actual track so those sax players (and rest of band) are only pretending to play….look and listen again and you’ll notice there aren’t any sax parts in this entire tune, only the solo but the sax section is pretending to play throughout the entire song!

Johnny is correct! Oh wow–good catch. We’ll I gues that’s what years of playing the Saxophone gets you–experience to be able to spot stuff like that.
