(Classic Rock) Little Richard has told how he suffered a heart attack last week � but he was saved by taking an aspirin. The 80-year-old rock'n'roll pioneer admitted he hadn't realised what was going on at first.

Richard explained during a Recording Academy talk: "The other night, I didn't know I was having a heart attack. I was coughing and my right arm was aching.

"I told my son, 'Make the room as cold as ice.' He turned the air conditioning on and I took a baby aspirin. The doctor told me that saved my life." more on this story
