History
Little Richard's profile was high during this period, with works including a track, "Miss Ann", on the album "To Bonnie from Delaney" and two tracks on the soundtrack to $. However, his own albums weren't selling, and a fourth and final album for Reprise - "Southern Child" - was dropped from release. The tracks to all of Richard's Reprise sessions, including the "Southern Child" album, were finally released on CD in 2005 by Rhino Records.
Richard recalled: "I left Reprise because I felt that the producers didn't have me at heart. "The Rill Thing" was a good album. All the Reprise albums were, but they didn't push them. So I left them. It wasn't mutual. I went to Reprise because I felt the company could do something. [...] I think the producers and people who worked there thought I wasn't their main singer." [White, Charles. (2003). "The Life and Times of Little Richard: The Authorised Biography." Omnibus Press. ] (page 167).]Track listing
