Little Richard - Hurry Sundown
Poverty, bigotry, and patriarchal violence defined Little Richard’s childhood, which may be what attracted him to this song, one about a father who benevolently prays for his children’s improved future. This introspective and brass-filled B-side to his single “I Don’t Want to Discuss It” refined Richards’s unfiltered moonshine vocal into an aged bourbon, perfect for this contemplative and weary civil rights ballad: “Don’t mind struggling / I don’t mind livin’ on a little / If someday my kids / Are laughing together / And having things I never own.” “Hurry Sundown” belatedly entered the public consciousness in 2017 when it appeared in the Better Call Saul episode “Sunk Costs“.
