Little Richard's Greatest Hits
Great Hits was Little Richard's eighth original album. This Greatest Hits album re-released all of Little Richard's 1950s songs when he was in his recording heyday with the Vee-Jay Records label. The album is considered by some Little Richard aficionados as misleadingly labelled, because the tracks on the album often make up budget CD compilations of the artist. For this reason, the versions in this Great Hits album are significantly different from the Specialty originals, most notably "Lucille", which in this Greatest Hits album, presents the listener with a completely different arrangement including violin, percussion, and jazz backing.
