New Orleans native Lloyd Price found success in the late 1950s with a few hits for Specialty Records. His career was interrupted in 1954 by the Korean War. Upon his return, he had to face the facts: he had been replaced in his own band by Little Richard. Devastated, Lloyd resumed recording without delay. By the end of the 50s, his audience had expanded considerably thanks to a unique blend of pop and New Orleans R&B. The track "Personality" reached number two on the charts, and "I'm Gonna Get Married" reached number three. These two classics, along with 10 other great pop-tinged rhythm & blues tracks, are featured on this reissue of his 1959 debut album.
