15 Éxitos Del Rey Del Rock & Roll (Ricardito)

Released in 1983 on the Mediterraneo label, 15 Éxitos Del Rey Del Rock & Roll represents a specific period of international compilation releases aimed at the Spanish-speaking market. During the early 1980s, record labels frequently revisited the catalogs of foundational rock and roll artists, repackaging classic hits for audiences who had grown up with the genre or were discovering it through the rockabilly revival of that decade.

The album serves as a utilitarian anthology of Little Richard’s peak-era recordings, intended to provide listeners with a concentrated dose of his high-energy rhythm and blues foundations. Like many regional releases of this era, the design reflects a straightforward approach to merchandising, focusing on the artist’s status as a foundational figure in rock music while utilizing standard graphic layouts common to Mediterranean or Latin American distribution branches of the time.
