Description

(Original Caption) 7/18/1956-Toronto, Canada: The chap at left above is "Little Richard," rock'n roll impressario who was among the entertainers at the rock'n roll show staged recently in Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens. Some 13,000 fans, mostly teen agers, shrieked, shimmied and stamped and also went into near trances during the show. Cops had a hard time trying to keep order in the Gardens as the fans tried to dance in the aisles and on the seats.
