LOUIE LOUIE by Richard Berry
The origin LOUIE LOUIE was released by Richard Berry in April of 1957.
Over 55 years ago and the 45 sold 40,000 copies.
There was no fuck in it like the later cover by the Kingsmen.
Berry sold his rights to Flip records for $750.
And they stole all his money.
You know who ‘they’ are.
