I’m watching this video on the day Little Richard died (May 09, 2020) and just awed by how much he thanks God in this video. Constant praise. And it made me realize that while God didn’t give Little Richard everything he wanted, he allowed him to see his music and music from the 1950’s come back around again and become re-appreciated, in a better way than it was when it was new. He outlived so many 1st generation rock and roll singers and never left God. Inspirational. I hope an updated movie is made about his life, reflecting that along with his music.

So, so true. I miss hosts like Snyder. He did his homework. And he let the guest answer the questions, and genuinely was interested in their answers. His guests were diverse. Iggy Pop was a guest on his show for goodness sake. Wow.

Tom Synder sounds bias to me and critical of how Little Richard looks. Especially when he says he looks like he is dressed up as Halloween. And he referred to him as color boy when that is old stuff. The identity is either Black or African American. Little Richard waa actually a handsome man even in his makeup. It was mostly for him to look different although he was gay as he admits. I love his music and his talent but glad that he gave his heart to the Lord before he passed almost two weeks ago. RIP talented and gifted man. Your music will live on in every generation.

He allowed them to speak, unlike Larry King & the worst, Charlie Rose.

Little Richard and I have so much in common. We both experienced the second slavery and our fathers sold bootleg liquor to feed the family because sharecropper slaves never received pay for their labor. Little richard overcame so many obstacles. He was truly blessed. Thank God 🙏

What a sweet heart..he wanted to get famouse so he could make a better life for his mama!

Just shows what a beautiful soul Little Richard had, love him.

I remember meeting Little Richard after church. He was so nice and very genuine. #Rest in Power

It's always good to hear the amazing Little Richard and as an interviewer, no one made it more interesting and fun than Tom Snyder.

I loved, and still love Little Richard and I always will. I’m especially fond of Elvis Presley and it’s so refreshing to hear him give Elvis respect he deserves. Richard will always, to me, be missed.

Gotta love him! So many hilarious quotes in this interview.

RIP little Richard. Your life was a rollercoaster. At least, when it finally came to a stop, you were happy.

Little Richard, the Architect of Rock 'n' Roll! He also has the BEST laugh, EVER!

A genius of a man wayyy ahead of his time. R.I.P. Sir.

I Wish He Had Gotten All His Honors. And Respect When He Was Alive! He Was Such a Handsome, And Talented Man!!❤❤
