The 45 of Long Tall Sally contains reverb, while many of
the CDs in the database are dry. These should be examined
for reverb, like many of the other Little Richard singles.

Interesting and potentially salient discussion on the Hoffman Board:
https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/little-richard-long-tall-sally-with-or-without-reverb-what-is-correct.908992/ - Link
Lots of questions raised there about different vintage pressings/masterings that don't
quite get sorted out but could provide fodder for thought in this examination.
One way or another, this is what Hoffman maintains:
"In the 1980s as some of you know, I helped ACE UK digitize all of the Little Richard
session tapes from the 1950s. They did it at Whitney in Glendale and basically I sat
with them to hear the great stuff. In the 1950s, nothing from the original studio was
delivered with reverb, no Fats, LR, etc. The echo was all record company added, either
in mastering or on redubbed copy tapes. Just saying, it's confusing as my 45 is dry.
But, it's a recut from the 1960s (I think)."
