• This special collector’s edition compiles his two first and finest albums: ‘Here’s Little Richard’ (1957) and ‘Little Richard’ (1958). Both LPs contain the cream of the crop from Richard’s hit-making stretch for the Specialty label during his most inspired years. In addition, 8 bonus tracks are included consisting of hard to find sides from the same period.

• Also known as “The Architect of Rock & Roll”, “The Georgia Peach”, and “The Living Flame”, Little Richard stands alone in the annals of music history. He wrote and recorded some of the most iconic popular songs, inspired generations of musicians & performers, blurred racial lines, and sent America into an uproar with his mix of church music, R&B beats, blaring vocals, and New Orleans-fired boogie-woogie.

• These splendid recordings feature a virtual who’s who of fabulous musicians from the Crescent City scene, including Lee Allen, Alvin “Red” Tyler, Ray Montrell, Frank Fields and Earl Palmer, among others. This is as explosive, engaging and lively as early rock & roll can sound.

• Total Time: 78:36 mins. - 32 tracks - also includes: 16-page booklet, rare photos, vintage visual memorabilia & detailed liner notes.

Reviews

Blues & Rhythm - Paul Mooney

if ever there was one word that could summarise the flamboyant, restless and sexuality ambiguous persona that was Little Richard it would be outrageous.
