  • Description

    Although he had very few major hits Wilbert Harrison is still remembered and revered today for perhaps just two recordings. His 1959 version of Leiber and Stoller's, "K. C. Loving", retitled, "Kansas City" by Wilbert and his 1962 recording of his own song "Let's Stick Together".

    Here for the first time in one package we present all the A and B sides of every single he released between 1953 and 1962, and as the 40 tracks on this collection show, he was anything but a two hit wonder.

    With many rare blues and R&B recordings and detailed liner notes this has to be the definitive Wilbert Harrison collection.
