The Sky is Crying-The Fire Records Story-Various
Fire Records was a sister to Fury Records and one of a number of labels founded by entrepreneur Morgan Clyde Bobby Robinson in the late Fifties. When he died in 2011, age 93, the Bluesworld website described Robinson s life as a six-decade saga of survival in an often ruthless business'. With hits from Elmore James, Buster Brown and Mary-Ann Fisher, this 2 disc compilation tells a tantalising part of that story. CD1 1. The Sky Is Crying - Elmore James 2.
