Little Richard-Kansas City/Hey-Hey-Hey He

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I know, not a Top 40 hit (peaked #95), but nevertheless a record that did 

gain notoriety when covered by a certain British band, I have two versions 

of this.  One runs 2:37 (as the 45 label shows 

 http://www.discogs.com/Little-Richard-Kansas-City-/release/2 825748) 

from the Sequel CD "Under The Influence The Original Versions of the 

Songs The Beatles Covered".  This sounds like the one The Beatles 

covered.  The other runs 2:16 from the Rhino "18 Greatest Hits" and is 

different.

I have also seen a 45 online with the title "Kansas City/Hey-Hey-Hey-Hey 

(A Medley)" with runtime 2:37 and from the Specialty LP "The Fabulous 

Little Richard" written on the 45.

Any info on this one regarding which pressing/version is the original?  

thanks.
