1-CD-Album Digipak (6-plated) with 51-page booklet, 34 tracks. Playing time approx. 78 minutes

Lloyd Price helped kick-start the rock'n'roll era in 1952 ... the New Orleans great really was there at the beginning.
The only career retrospective to feature key recordings from Specialty, KRC, and ABC-Paramount.
All Lloyd Price biggest rock'n'roll hits are here ... Lawdy Miss Clawdy, Stagger Lee, Where Were You
(On Our Wedding Day), Personality and the rest.
The first legitimate CD to include Lloyd Price rare but very best rock'n'roll tracks like Such A Mess and The Chicken And The Bop.
Wonderful packaging with great photos and interview-based notes by Bill Dahl.

Lloyd Price played a huge role in igniting the rock 'n' roll revolution with his 1952 landmark R&B chart-topper Lawdy Miss Clawdy, and the young New Orleans-born singer with the warm, sunny smile was also one of the first standup R&B singers to consistently crash the pop hit parade with his late '50s classics Stagger Lee and Personality.

This 34-song collection is easily the most comprehensive Lloyd Price hits overview yet, incorporating a dozen of his early sizzlers for Specialty (including the rockers Where You At?, Rock 'n' Roll Dance, and Baby Please Come Home), several new-to- compact disc gems from Lloyd Price's own KRC label (The Chicken And The Bop, Georgianna, Such A Mess), and his immortal pop smashes for ABC-Paramount, including his chart-topping Stagger Lee and Personality as well as Just Because, Where Were You (On Our Wedding Day)?, Lady Luck, and his romping cover of the Louis Jordan chestnut Ain't That Just Like A Woman. This Price is always right!
