  1. "Tutti Frutti" ( #Italian for "all fruits") is a song written by #LittleRichard and #DorothyLaBostrie, recorded in 1955, which was Richard's first major hit. With its energetic #refrain and its hard-driving sound and wild lyrics, it became not only a model for many future Little Richard songs, but also for #rockAndRoll itself. Its refrain is often transcribed as "A-wop-bop-a-loo-mop-a-lop-bam-boom!".
