One would hope that the early titles are the Specialty originals.
Some of his Vee-Jay tracks are not up to snuff, but otherwise you can never have enough Little Richard.

A long time ago I picked up the European version the Specialty Sessions Boxed Set - it is a 8 disc set of that material - great if you like lots of out takes and false starts. I will be picking this up for the Vee Jay material.

That European Specialty box is a great one. I still play it often.
