A decade before the ascendance of Motown, Houston's Duke and Peacock record labels flourished as an African-American owned company. Don Robey, a nightclub owner with reputed underworld connections, ran it with an iron hand. Formed in 1949, the controversial Robey released varied and entertaining tracks on his Peacock label, including the 1953 hit 'Hound Dog' by Willie Mae 'Big Mama' Thornton, along with 'Boogie Uproar' by Clarence 'Gatemouth' Brown and 'Let's Dance' by Floyd Dixon, all included here on this 2 disc compilation.
