The LITTLE RICHARD Specialty hits SACD on Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs. You need this disk!

NY public library had a copy of this

 

Little Richard - Here's Little Richard / Little Richard

Been out of print for a good many years I think. It's a great disc and can still be found on eBay and Discogs for not too outrageous prices.

I think it's among the last discs MOFI did in SACD jewel cases (before switching to mini lps).

 

I've got it, it's great, it's what rock and roll is all about.

This is one of my favourite tracks...

 

I purchased a copy a couple of years ago on this forum. Glad I did it!

It's a wonderful sounding SACD, and of course, a "Greatest Hits" on its own. Definitely a must have for any rock music fan

 

Bought this when it first came out, great disc. There is an error on mine, the track listing on the back does not list Lucille.

 

Got it when it was released. Hopefully prices are not too outrageous now for those still interested.

 

I bought this when it was released. Worth every penny.

And Lucille sounds even better on here than it does on my original tri-centre London American 45 rpm single!

 

The only Little Richard I have, and have had it for several years now. Have to play it when I'm alone, as the family loathes it.

 

When I got it I was able to compare it (as a listener) to a '50s 'Here's Little Richard' LP and it sounded as full to me. It's really nice when you find something done so right.

 

This was fixed on later pressings

 

Original thread from 2011 is below. Unfortunately prices are ridiculous at the usual outlets except at Discogs (for now).

Little Richard: MFSL Little Richard Mono SACD

 

After some forum threads I revived this week, am glad I purchased the Ace UK singles comp for £3 which surely takes silver medal.

 

Have it and love it!

 

Appreciate the recommendation, but going to stick with my Specialty Sessions box until a copy shows up at less than unobtanium prices.

 

Awesome disc

 

Thanks! I just got a copy from a Greek seller!

 

Got it. Little Richard is THE sound of rock n roll, more so than Elvis, Chuck, Jerry Lee....whoever you care to mention imo. Totally wild. I can also recommend the 6cd Specialty Sessions set which I think is on Ace. Ace by name, Ace by nature. The Russians have been in the news recently I believe but from a musical viewpoint, Sputnik 1 has a lot to answer for.

 

I've got both of these (this is actually all of the Little Richard in my collection). The MFSL does sound better. It's too bad it's so expensive though. I was able to pick up a used copy for about $15 from my local record store a few years ago.

 

Picked the LP and the sacd hybrid up when they first came out. Good stuff. The high point for rock n roll was this period.

 

The only Little Richard release you need.

 

I've had this since it came out. Must admit I haven't given it a spin in quite some time. You just persuaded me to pull it off the shelf (once I can figure out if I filed it under "L" or "R").

 

DNA of rock. And sounds great.

 

I have the s/t MoFi vinyl. Yes, it's excellent.

 

If I see this, I will pick it up.
