Not entirely content with being a 1950s R&B star on the strength of his immortal
New Orleans classic "Lawdy Miss Clawdy," singer Lloyd Price yearned for massive
pop acceptance. He found it, too, with a storming rock & roll reading of the
ancient blues "Stagger Lee" and the unabashedly pop-slanted "Personality" and
"I'm Gonna Get Married". The two original albums packaged here, Exciting Lloyd
Price and Mr. “Personality”, were recorded at the beginning of his
career with ABC-Paramount; the label that issued his biggest smash hits.
Recorded in absolutely breathtaking stereo sound that greatly enhances the
brass-heavy arrangements, this CD edition is a rare find.

“These songs were meant to be rock & roll hits, and they not only were,
they're among the best of their kind from the late '50s. Essential music.”
