Founded by legendary Bobby Robinson, the Fury label had to wait only 2 years before it registered a No. 1 smash nationally in "Kansas City," a cover version by Wilbert Harrison who sped up the tempo from Little Willie Littlefield's original back in 1952. You'll also hear the distinctive croaked voice of Lee Dorsey, Frankie Lymon's sibling, and the very early works of Gladys Knight with her Pips.
