MR. SUIT RECORDS

Though best known for his classic sides on the Specialty label, RCA & Peacock labels were the first pit stops for the real king of Rock N Roll. For those labels Richard Wayne Penniman recorded 16 tunes. The first thing one can see clearly here, is that Little Richard before Esqueritawas a good R&B artist still looking for his unique voice. The bands on these sides were Johnny Otis' and the Deuces of Rhythm along with the Tempo Toppers. Documented here are the Peacock/RCA years along with some alternate takes, another essential piece of R&B and rock’n’roll history.
