==Original recording by Little Richard==
Although "Little Richard" Penniman had recorded for [[RCA]] and [[Peacock Records]] since 1951, his records had been relatively undistinguished and did not result in the commercial success for which his producers hoped. In February 1955, he sent a [[demo (music)|demo]] tape to [[Specialty Records]], which was heard by Specialty owner [[Art Rupe]]. Rupe heard promise in the tapes and arranged a recording session for Little Richard at [[Cosimo Matassa]]'s J & M Studio in New Orleans in September 1955, with [[Bumps Blackwell|Robert "Bumps" Blackwell]] as producer and [[Fats Domino]]'s backing band. The band included [[Lee Allen (musician)|Lee Allen]] and [[Alvin Tyler|Alvin "Red" Tyler]] on [[saxophone]]s, [[Huey Smith]] on [[piano]], Frank Fields on [[double bass]], Justin Adams on [[guitar]] and [[Earl Palmer]] on [[Drum kit|drums]].<ref name=DawsonPropes>Jim Dawson and Steve Propes, ''What Was The First Rock'n'Roll Record,'' 1992, {{ISBN|0-571-12939-0}}</ref><ref name=grove>Penniman, Richard Wayne. "Little Richard." Little Richard 24 Jan 2008. GroveMusic.com (subscription only)</ref>
As the session wore on, Little Richard became frustrated that his anarchic performance style was not being fully captured on tape. During a lunch break, he started pounding a piano and singing a ribald song that he wrote and composed, and which he had been performing live for a few years.<ref name="whitep55">White, Charles (2003), p.55 ''The Life and Times of Little Richard: The Authorised Biography.'' Omnibus Press.</ref> According to some accounts, he first wrote and performed the song while working as a janitor in a bus station.<ref>Cox, Michael (1997). ''Mind-Blowing Music'' Scholastic Press. {{ISBN|0590195700}}</ref> The song that he sang was a piece of music that he "had polished in clubs across the South."<ref name=Lhamon>Lhamon, W.T.. Deliberate Speed: The Origins of a Cultural Style in the American 1950s. USA: The Smithsonian Institution, 1990.</ref> Little Richard sang:
{{poemquote|A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop-a-wop-bam-boom!
Tutti Frutti, good booty}}
After this lively performance, Blackwell knew the song was going to be a hit, but recognized that the lyrics, with their "minstrel modes and sexual humor", needed to be revised for lyrical purity.<ref name=Lhamon/>
Blackwell contacted local songwriter [[Dorothy LaBostrie]] to revise the lyrics, with Little Richard still playing in his characteristic style. According to Blackwell, LaBostrie "didn't understand melody" but she was definitely a "prolific writer".<ref>Brackett, David. The Pop, Rock, and Soul Reader: Histories and Debates. New York: Oxford, 2004</ref>
The original lyrics, in which "Tutti Frutti" referred to a homosexual man, were:
{{poemquote|Tutti Frutti, good booty
If it don't fit, don't force it
You can grease it, make it easy<ref name=cWhite>White, Charles. The Life and Times of Little Richard: The Quasar of Rock". New York: Harmony, 1984</ref>}}
These were replaced with:
{{poemquote|Tutti Frutti, aw rooty
Tutti Frutti, aw rooty.}}
"Aw rooty" was a slang expression meaning "All right". According to [[Charles Connor]], Little Richard's drummer, the original lyrics were:
{{poemquote|Tutti Frutti, good booty
If it's tight, it's all right
And if it's greasy, it makes it easy<ref>''Rock 'n' Roll America'' (BBC documentary, 2015), Part 1, c. 41:00</ref>}}
In addition to Penniman and LaBostrie, a third name—Lubin—is credited as co-writer. Some sources considered this a pseudonym used by Specialty label owner [[Art Rupe]] to claim royalties on some of his label's songs,<ref name=DawsonPropes /> but others refer to songwriter Joe Lubin.<ref>[{{Allmusic|class=artist|id=p308092|pure_url=yes}} allmusic ((( Joe Lubin > Overview )))]</ref>
As possible evidence that the "sexual song" theory was created later, songwriter LaBostrie was quoted as saying, "Little Richard didn't write none of 'Tutti Frutti'. I'll tell you exactly how I came to write that. I used to live on Galvez Street and my girlfriend and I liked to go down to the drug store and buy ice cream. One day we went in and saw this new flavor, Tutti Frutti. Right away I thought, 'Boy, that's a great idea for a song'. So I kept it in the back of my mind until I got to the studio that day. I also wrote the flip side of 'Tutti Frutti', 'I'm Just A Lonely Guy', and a spiritual, 'Blessed Mother', all in the same day." LaBostrie was still receiving royalty checks on the average of $5,000 every three to six months from the song in the 1980s.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rockabilly.nl/references/messages/dorothy_labostrie.htm |title=Dorothy Labostrie |publisher=Rockabilly.nl |date= |accessdate=2015-11-09}}</ref>
Blackwell said time constraints prevented the development of a new arrangement, so Little Richard recorded the revised song in three takes, taking about 15 minutes, with the original piano part. The song was recorded on September 14, 1955.<ref name=DawsonPropes /> Released on Specialty 561, the record entered the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' [[Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs|Rhythm and Blues chart]] at the end of December 1955 and rose to No. 2 early in February 1956. It also reached No. 21 on the ''Billboard'' pop chart. In the UK, it only scraped into the top 30 in 1957, as the B-side of "[[Long Tall Sally]]". The song, with its [[Twelve-bar blues|twelve-bar blues chord progression]],<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.icce.rug.nl/~soundscapes/VOLUME06/Music_matters_Appendix.shtml |title=A sample of 100 rock and roll songs |publisher=Icce.rug.nl |date=2003-04-06 |accessdate=2015-11-09}}</ref> provided the foundation of Little Richard's career. It was seen as a very aggressive song that contained more features of African American [[vernacular music]] than any other past recordings in this style.<ref name=grove/>
Richard's contract with Peacock had been purchased by [[Specialty Records]] owner [[Art Rupe]], who also owned the publishing company that bought Richard's songs. Specialty's deal with Richard was typical of most record companies's dealings with their artists.<ref>''The Life and Times of Little Richard: The Quasar of Rock.'' Charles White.

===Impact===
"Tutti Frutti" provided the title for one of the earliest books about the development of rock and roll and pop music from the 1950s, [[Nik Cohn]]'s ''"Awopbopaloobop Alopbamboom"'' (1969). In 2010, the US [[Library of Congress]] [[National Recording Registry]] added the recording to its registry, stating that the hit, with its original ''[[a cappella]]'' introduction, heralded a new era in music.<ref name="Culpeper Star-Exponent : News">{{cite web|url=http://m.starexponent.com/culpeper/db_6501/contentdetail.htm;jsessionid=7F4B24B2D77D68B6D0F464B77E664A6B?full=true&contentguid=6KQyJ7zJ&pn=&ps=|title=Culpeper Star-Exponent : News|publisher=M.starexponent.com|accessdate=2010-09-18|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716131347/http://m.starexponent.com/culpeper/db_6501/contentdetail.htm;jsessionid=7F4B24B2D77D68B6D0F464B77E664A6B?full=true&contentguid=6KQyJ7zJ&pn=&ps=|archive-date=2011-07-16|url-status=dead}}</ref>
Combining elements of boogie, [[Gospel music|gospel]] and [[blues]], the song introduced several of [[rock music]]'s most characteristic musical features, including its loud volume and vocal style emphasizing power, and its distinctive beat and rhythm. The beat has its roots in [[boogie-woogie]], but Richard departed from its [[shuffle rhythm]] and introduced a new distinctive rock beat. He reinforced the new rock rhythm with a two-handed approach, playing patterns with his right hand, with the rhythm typically popping out in the piano's high [[Register (music)|register]]. The song's new rhythm became the basis for the standard rock beat, which was later consolidated by [[Chuck Berry]].<ref name=campbell115>{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=RK-JmVbv4OIC&pg=PA115 |title=Rock and Roll: An Introduction |author1=Michael Campbell |author2=James Brody |page=115 |publisher=Books.google.co.uk |date=2007-02-27 |accessdate=2015-11-09}}</ref>

Elvis' cut of "Tutti Frutti" was also released as part of a four track EP (RCA EPA-747) and as the b-side of "Blue Suede Shoes" (RCA 47-6636) which reached #20 on the 'Billboard' chart.
==The Beatles versions==
According to eminent author [[Mark Lewisohn]] in ''The Complete Beatles Chronicles'' (p. 365) [[The Beatles]] performed "Tutti Frutti" live from at least 1960 through 1962 (in Hamburg, Liverpool and elsewhere). Reportedly the lead vocal was always by [[Paul McCartney]], but it is unknown whether their version was actually based on the one by [[Elvis]] or that of [[Little Richard]]. No recorded version is known to survive. However, according to author Allen J. Weiner in ''The Beatles - The Ultimate Recording Guide'' (p. 225) during the massive [[Get Back]] sessions a version of "Tutti Frutti" was recorded. A few months later [[George Harrison]] played on a live version which was recorded in Copenhagen with [[Delaney and Bonnie]] and [[Eric Clapton]] which came out on an unauthorized release, though a legitimate version was also recorded in concert in England (and released in 1970). In 1972 [[Ringo Starr]] drummed on, and produced a brief version with [[Elton John]] on piano and [[T. Rex (band)|T. Rex]] singer [[Marc Bolan]] on lead vocal. Lastly, in the 1990s [[Paul McCartney]] did a (professionally recorded) soundcheck singing "Tutti Frutti" but not like Elvis or Little Richard but instead like an extremely laid-back [[Pat Boone]] of 1956 (Boone's real version was more lively). The McCartney version came out on an unauthorized release, ''Soundcheck Songs Vol. 1'')
==Later recordings==
Little Richard re-recorded the song in 1964 for [[Vee Jay Records]]' ''[[Little Richard's Greatest Hits]]'' and again in 1978 for a [[K-tel]] compilation titled ''[[Little Richard Live]]''.

==Original recording by Little Richard==
Although "Little Richard" Penniman had recorded for [[RCA]] and [[Peacock Records]] since 1951, his records had been relatively undistinguished and did not result in the commercial success for which his producers hoped. In February 1955, he sent a [[demo (music)|demo]] tape to [[Specialty Records]], which was heard by Specialty owner [[Art Rupe]]. Rupe heard promise in the tapes and arranged a recording session for Little Richard at [[Cosimo Matassa]]'s J & M Studio in New Orleans in September 1955, with [[Bumps Blackwell|Robert "Bumps" Blackwell]] as producer and [[Fats Domino]]'s backing band. The band included [[Lee Allen (musician)|Lee Allen]] and [[Alvin Tyler|Alvin "Red" Tyler]] on [[saxophone]]s, [[Huey Smith]] on [[piano]], Frank Fields on [[double bass]], Justin Adams on [[guitar]] and [[Earl Palmer]] on [[Drum kit|drums]].<ref name=DawsonPropes>Jim Dawson and Steve Propes, ''What Was The First Rock'n'Roll Record,'' 1992, {{ISBN|0-571-12939-0}}</ref><ref name=grove>Penniman, Richard Wayne. "Little Richard." Little Richard 24 Jan 2008. GroveMusic.com (subscription only)</ref>
As the session wore on, Little Richard became frustrated that his anarchic performance style was not being fully captured on tape. During a lunch break, he started pounding a piano and singing a ribald song that he wrote and composed, and which he had been performing live for a few years.<ref name="whitep55">White, Charles (2003), p.55 ''The Life and Times of Little Richard: The Authorised Biography.'' Omnibus Press.</ref> According to some accounts, he first wrote and performed the song while working as a janitor in a bus station.<ref>Cox, Michael (1997). ''Mind-Blowing Music'' Scholastic Press. {{ISBN|0590195700}}</ref> The song that he sang was a piece of music that he "had polished in clubs across the South."<ref name=Lhamon>Lhamon, W.T.. Deliberate Speed: The Origins of a Cultural Style in the American 1950s. USA: The Smithsonian Institution, 1990.</ref> Little Richard sang:
{{poemquote|A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop-a-wop-bam-boom!
Tutti Frutti, good booty}}
After this lively performance, Blackwell knew the song was going to be a hit, but recognized that the lyrics, with their "minstrel modes and sexual humor", needed to be revised for lyrical purity.<ref name=Lhamon/>
Blackwell contacted local songwriter [[Dorothy LaBostrie]] to revise the lyrics, with Little Richard still playing in his characteristic style. According to Blackwell, LaBostrie "didn't understand melody" but she was definitely a "prolific writer".<ref>Brackett, David. The Pop, Rock, and Soul Reader: Histories and Debates. New York: Oxford, 2004</ref>
The original lyrics, in which "Tutti Frutti" referred to a homosexual man, were:
{{poemquote|Tutti Frutti, good booty
If it don't fit, don't force it
You can grease it, make it easy<ref name=cWhite>White, Charles. The Life and Times of Little Richard: The Quasar of Rock". New York: Harmony, 1984</ref>}}
These were replaced with:
{{poemquote|Tutti Frutti, aw rooty
Tutti Frutti, aw rooty.}}
"Aw rooty" was a slang expression meaning "All right". According to [[Charles Connor]], Little Richard's drummer, the original lyrics were:
{{poemquote|Tutti Frutti, good booty
If it's tight, it's all right
And if it's greasy, it makes it easy<ref>''Rock 'n' Roll America'' (BBC documentary, 2015), Part 1, c. 41:00</ref>}}
In addition to Penniman and LaBostrie, a third name—Lubin—is credited as co-writer. Some sources considered this a pseudonym used by Specialty label owner [[Art Rupe]] to claim royalties on some of his label's songs,<ref name=DawsonPropes /> but others refer to songwriter Joe Lubin.<ref>[{{Allmusic|class=artist|id=p308092|pure_url=yes}} allmusic ((( Joe Lubin > Overview )))]</ref>
As possible evidence that the "sexual song" theory was created later, songwriter LaBostrie was quoted as saying, "Little Richard didn't write none of 'Tutti Frutti'. I'll tell you exactly how I came to write that. I used to live on Galvez Street and my girlfriend and I liked to go down to the drug store and buy ice cream. One day we went in and saw this new flavor, Tutti Frutti. Right away I thought, 'Boy, that's a great idea for a song'. So I kept it in the back of my mind until I got to the studio that day. I also wrote the flip side of 'Tutti Frutti', 'I'm Just A Lonely Guy', and a spiritual, 'Blessed Mother', all in the same day." LaBostrie was still receiving royalty checks on the average of $5,000 every three to six months from the song in the 1980s.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.rockabilly.nl/references/messages/dorothy_labostrie.htm |title=Dorothy Labostrie |publisher=Rockabilly.nl |date= |accessdate=2015-11-09}}</ref>
Blackwell said time constraints prevented the development of a new arrangement, so Little Richard recorded the revised song in three takes, taking about 15 minutes, with the original piano part. The song was recorded on September 14, 1955.<ref name=DawsonPropes /> Released on Specialty 561, the record entered the ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' [[Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs|Rhythm and Blues chart]] at the end of December 1955 and rose to No. 2 early in February 1956. It also reached No. 21 on the ''Billboard'' pop chart. In the UK, it only scraped into the top 30 in 1957, as the B-side of "[[Long Tall Sally]]". The song, with its [[Twelve-bar blues|twelve-bar blues chord progression]],<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.icce.rug.nl/~soundscapes/VOLUME06/Music_matters_Appendix.shtml |title=A sample of 100 rock and roll songs |publisher=Icce.rug.nl |date=2003-04-06 |accessdate=2015-11-09}}</ref> provided the foundation of Little Richard's career. It was seen as a very aggressive song that contained more features of African American [[vernacular music]] than any other past recordings in this style.<ref name=grove/>
Richard's contract with Peacock had been purchased by [[Specialty Records]] owner [[Art Rupe]], who also owned the publishing company that bought Richard's songs. Specialty's deal with Richard was typical of most record companies's dealings with their artists.<ref>''The Life and Times of Little Richard: The Quasar of Rock.'' Charles White.

===Impact===
"Tutti Frutti" provided the title for one of the earliest books about the development of rock and roll and pop music from the 1950s, [[Nik Cohn]]'s ''"Awopbopaloobop Alopbamboom"'' (1969). In 2010, the US [[Library of Congress]] [[National Recording Registry]] added the recording to its registry, stating that the hit, with its original ''[[a cappella]]'' introduction, heralded a new era in music.<ref name="Culpeper Star-Exponent : News">{{cite web|url=http://m.starexponent.com/culpeper/db_6501/contentdetail.htm;jsessionid=7F4B24B2D77D68B6D0F464B77E664A6B?full=true&contentguid=6KQyJ7zJ&pn=&ps=|title=Culpeper Star-Exponent : News|publisher=M.starexponent.com|accessdate=2010-09-18|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716131347/http://m.starexponent.com/culpeper/db_6501/contentdetail.htm;jsessionid=7F4B24B2D77D68B6D0F464B77E664A6B?full=true&contentguid=6KQyJ7zJ&pn=&ps=|archive-date=2011-07-16|url-status=dead}}</ref>
Combining elements of boogie, [[Gospel music|gospel]] and [[blues]], the song introduced several of [[rock music]]'s most characteristic musical features, including its loud volume and vocal style emphasizing power, and its distinctive beat and rhythm. The beat has its roots in [[boogie-woogie]], but Richard departed from its [[shuffle rhythm]] and introduced a new distinctive rock beat. He reinforced the new rock rhythm with a two-handed approach, playing patterns with his right hand, with the rhythm typically popping out in the piano's high [[Register (music)|register]]. The song's new rhythm became the basis for the standard rock beat, which was later consolidated by [[Chuck Berry]].<ref name=campbell115>{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=RK-JmVbv4OIC&pg=PA115 |title=Rock and Roll: An Introduction |author1=Michael Campbell |author2=James Brody |page=115 |publisher=Books.google.co.uk |date=2007-02-27 |accessdate=2015-11-09}}</ref>

[[Elvis Presley]] recorded the song<ref name=pc7/> and it was included in his first [[Sony BMG|RCA]] album ''[[Elvis Presley (album)|Elvis Presley]]'' March 23, 1956. Presley's version uses "A-wop-bop-a-loo-bop-a-lop-bam-boom!" for every verse,<ref name=pc7>{{Gilliland |url=https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc19754/ |title=Show 7 - The All American Boy: Enter Elvis and the rock-a-billies.

Elvis' cut of "Tutti Frutti" was also released as part of a four track EP (RCA EPA-747) and as the b-side of "Blue Suede Shoes" (RCA 47-6636) which reached #20 on the 'Billboard' chart.
==The Beatles versions==
According to eminent author [[Mark Lewisohn]] in ''The Complete Beatles Chronicles'' (p. 365) [[The Beatles]] performed "Tutti Frutti" live from at least 1960 through 1962 (in Hamburg, Liverpool and elsewhere). Reportedly the lead vocal was always by [[Paul McCartney]], but it is unknown whether their version was actually based on the one by [[Elvis]] or that of [[Little Richard]]. No recorded version is known to survive. However, according to author Allen J. Weiner in ''The Beatles - The Ultimate Recording Guide'' (p. 225) during the massive [[Get Back]] sessions a version of "Tutti Frutti" was recorded. A few months later [[George Harrison]] played on a live version which was recorded in Copenhagen with [[Delaney and Bonnie]] and [[Eric Clapton]] which came out on an unauthorized release, though a legitimate version was also recorded in concert in England (and released in 1970). In 1972 [[Ringo Starr]] drummed on, and produced a brief version with [[Elton John]] on piano and [[T. Rex (band)|T. Rex]] singer [[Marc Bolan]] on lead vocal. Lastly, in the 1990s [[Paul McCartney]] did a (professionally recorded) soundcheck singing "Tutti Frutti" but not like Elvis or Little Richard but instead like an extremely laid-back [[Pat Boone]] of 1956 (Boone's real version was more lively). The McCartney version came out on an unauthorized release, ''Soundcheck Songs Vol. 1'')
==Later recordings==
Little Richard re-recorded the song in 1964 for [[Vee Jay Records]]' ''[[Little Richard's Greatest Hits]]'' and again in 1978 for a [[K-tel]] compilation titled ''[[Little Richard Live]]''.

</p><p>As the session wore on, Little Richard became frustrated that his anarchic performance style was not being fully captured on tape.

<p>After this lively performance, Blackwell knew the song was going to be a hit, but recognized that the lyrics, with their "minstrel modes and sexual humor", needed to be revised for lyrical purity.<sup id="cite_ref-Lhamon_11-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Lhamon-11">[11]</a></sup>
</p><p>Blackwell contacted local songwriter <a href="/https/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorothy_LaBostrie" title="Dorothy LaBostrie">Dorothy LaBostrie</a> to revise the lyrics, with Little Richard still playing in his characteristic style.

<p>In addition to Penniman and LaBostrie, a third name—Lubin—is credited as co-writer. Some sources considered this a pseudonym used by Specialty label owner <a href="/https/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_Rupe" title="Art Rupe">Art Rupe</a> to claim royalties on some of his label's songs,<sup id="cite_ref-DawsonPropes_1-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-DawsonPropes-1">[1]</a></sup> but others refer to songwriter Joe Lubin.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15">[15]</a></sup>
</p><p>As possible evidence that the "sexual song" theory was created later, songwriter LaBostrie was quoted as saying, "Little Richard didn't write none of 'Tutti Frutti'. I'll tell you exactly how I came to write that. I used to live on Galvez Street and my girlfriend and I liked to go down to the drug store and buy ice cream. One day we went in and saw this new flavor, Tutti Frutti. Right away I thought, 'Boy, that's a great idea for a song'. So I kept it in the back of my mind until I got to the studio that day. I also wrote the flip side of 'Tutti Frutti', 'I'm Just A Lonely Guy', and a spiritual, 'Blessed Mother', all in the same day." LaBostrie was still receiving royalty checks on the average of $5,000 every three to six months from the song in the 1980s.<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a></sup>
</p><p>Blackwell said time constraints prevented the development of a new arrangement, so Little Richard recorded the revised song in three takes, taking about 15 minutes, with the original piano part. The song was recorded on September 14, 1955.<sup id="cite_ref-DawsonPropes_1-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-DawsonPropes-1">[1]</a></sup> Released on Specialty 561, the record entered the <i><a href="/https/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billboard_(magazine)" title="Billboard (magazine)">Billboard</a></i> <a href="/https/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_R%26B/Hip-Hop_Songs" title="Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs">Rhythm and Blues chart</a> at the end of December 1955 and rose to No. 2 early in February 1956. It also reached No. 21 on the <i>Billboard</i> pop chart. In the UK, it only scraped into the top 30 in 1957, as the B-side of "<a href="/https/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Tall_Sally" title="Long Tall Sally">Long Tall Sally</a>".

They needed a rock star to block me out of white homes because I was a hero to white kids. The white kids would have Pat Boone upon the dresser and me in the drawer 'cause they liked my version better, but the families didn't want me because of the image that I was projecting.<sup id="cite_ref-Harrington_30-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Harrington-30">[30]</a></sup></p></blockquote>

Reportedly the lead vocal was always by <a href="/https/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_McCartney" title="Paul McCartney">Paul McCartney</a>, but it is unknown whether their version was actually based on the one by <a href="/https/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elvis" class="mw-redirect" title="Elvis">Elvis</a> or that of <a href="/https/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Richard" title="Little Richard">Little Richard</a>.
