An underrated vocalist who possessed incredible power and clarity, Lloyd Price
was one of the great pioneers that transformed blues singing, and expanded
rhythm & blues with a swing-band orchestration into rock & roll. Not entirely
content with being a 1950s R&B star on the strength of his immortal New Orleans
classic “Lawdy Miss Clawdy”, Price (also known as “Mr.
Personality”, a nickname copped from one of his most popular hits) yearned
for massive pop acceptance. He found it, too, with a storming rock & roll
reading of the ancient blues “Stagger Lee”, followed by a string of
splendid LPs for the ABC-Paramount label.
This quintessential release presents two of his finest albums: Sings the Million
Sellers (1961) and The Fantastic Lloyd Price (1960). Long unavailable, both
records have finally been remastered and packaged together in this very special
collector’s edition, which also includes 7 bonus tracks from the same
period. Most of these great songs – recorded in crystal clear stereo
sound – were produced and arranged by Sid Feller and the future Motown
staffer Gil Askey, who gave Price’s interpretations full-bodied support.
