Willie Littlefield, Jr., billed as Little Willie Littlefield (September 16, 1931 – June 23, 2013), was an American R&B and boogie-woogie pianist and singer whose early recordings "formed a vital link between boogie-woogie and rock and roll". Littlefield was regarded as a teenage wonder and overnight sensation when in 1949, at the age of 18, he popularized the triplet piano style on his Modern Records debut single, "It's Midnight". He also recorded the first version of the song "Kansas City" (originally issued as "K. C. Lovin'"), in 1952.

  • Willie Littlefield Jr., plus connu sous le nom de Little Willie Littlefield (16 septembre 1931 - 23 juin 2013) est un pianiste et chanteur américain de rhythm and blues et de boogie-woogie dont les premiers enregistrements « forment un maillon essentiel entre le boogie-woogie et le rock and roll ». Littlefield est à la fois considéré comme « une pépite adolescente » et « la sensation du moment » lorsqu'en 1949, à l'âge de 18 ans, il popularise le style de piano à base de triolets sur It's Midnight, son premier single chez Modern Records. Il enregistre également la première version de la chanson Kansas City (initialement publiée sous le nom de K.C. Lovin') en 1952. (fr)
