2017 collection. For the uninitiated, Esquerita was a very flamboyant, outrageous, gay black man - not a great thing to be in early '50s America. However, the first 20 tracks of this CD are some of the wildest, craziest and out of control rock and roll records ever made and truly must be heard. Esquerita is credited to teaching Little Richard to play piano, yet the insane and totally undisciplined sounds that you'll hear from your speakers as he attacks the piano like a man desperate to find the right chords makes Little Richard's recordings sound polite and refined. The frantic organ led instrumental of the old pop hit "Green Door" became something of a jukebox smash across the southern states of America and the rest of the tracks on this set really should have been hits as well! So here then are the wildest rock and roll records ever made presented for your listening pleasure.
