Little Richard discography
This page is a discography for American musician Little Richard (1932–2020). Described as "the architect of rock and roll", Little Richard was a pioneering singer-songwriter whose career also encompassed rhythm and blues, soul, and gospel. He began his recording career with RCA Victor in 1951, releasing his first singles. He attained international success following his signing to Specialty Records in 1955 and the issue of his first LP album two years later. Although his last album was released in 1992, Little Richard continued to tour into the 21st century.
The pre-Specialty sessions
RCA Victor sessions: WGST Studio, Atlanta, October 16, 1951, and January 12, 1952
Peacock sessions: Houston, February 25 and October 5, 1953
The Specialty sessions
Little Richard recorded a demonstration tape for Specialty at WBML Studio, Macon, on February 9, 1955. He recorded for Specialty for two years, from September 13, 1955, to October 18, 1957.
When Richard abdicated from rock 'n' roll in late 1957, Specialty was forced to go back to earlier, less rock-oriented recordings they had rejected initially to make future releases. In an effort to make these recordings sound "current", they added a female chorus (and in at least one instance, extra instrumentation) to the basic track.
