Little Richard toured the UK in 1962 - The Beatles supported him on a bill at The Tower Ballroom, New Brighton. He was back in 1963, and Granada recorded a half hour with him in their studios in Manchester, featuring The Shirelles and British backing band Sounds Incorporated. Granada repeated it early in 1964, because of public demand.
Sounds Incorporated befriended the Beatles in Hamburg, and opened for them at Shea Stadium. The sax section is featured on Good Morning, Good Morning on the Sergeant Pepper album.
