This sumptuous five-disc box set contains a bevy of highlights from this seminal R&B/rock & roll label. Over the years, Rupe recorded a little bit of everything; early big band jump (the Liggins brothers), down-home blues and zydeco (Guitar Slim, Frankie Lee Sims, Clifton Chenier), gospel (early Sam Cooke and the Soul Stirrers), and doo wop (the Pentagons, Jesse Belvin). But with the discovery of the label's biggest star, Little Richard, in 1955, here is where the real story of rock & roll begins. A box set that no lover of the real thing can be without.~ Cub Koda Producer: Billy Vera   Technical Info Release Date : 03/15/1994 Original Release Date : 1994 Catalog ID : 4412 Label : Specialty Records Number of Discs : 5 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Mixed SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00022211441229   Professional Reviews Rolling Stone (6/30/94, p.77) - "...Specialty Records was one of the cornerstones of the rock & roll era..."    Related Videos In Search of Solid Ground...
