I was riding in a truck with Mutt Cagle and Fireball Carter the first time I heard Little Richard’s “Keep A Knockin’” on the radio. I almost drove off the road to Turkey Scratch because I was beating on the steering wheel so hard. That rhythm knocked me flat, and still does. The Jungle Bush Beaters (Levon’s high school band) were major Little Richard fans, and we had to learn all his hits — “Tutti Frutti,” “Long Tall Sally,” Rip It Up,” “Good Golly Miss Molly,” “Ready Teddy,” “Jenny Jenny,” “Lucille,” “Slippin’ And Slidin’” — because we got so many requests for them. –Levon Helm, This Wheel’s on Fire: Levon Helm and the Story of the Band, p. 40-41
