Lloyd Price (March 9, 1933 – May 3, 2021) was an American R&B and rock 'n' roll singer, known as "Mr. Personality",[2] after his 1959 million-selling hit, "Personality". His first recording, "Lawdy Miss Clawdy", was a hit for Specialty Records in 1952. He continued to release records, but none were as popular until several years later, when he refined the New Orleans beat and achieved a series of national hits.[3] He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998.[4]
