Various – The Sue Story(1969)

Biography
Sue Records was formed by Henry “Juggy” Murray, Jr. (born November 24, 1922) in New York City in January, 1957. Juggy Murray, along with Bobby Robinson, were the two most successful black record label proprietors in New York City. Although Sue became nationally known for its rock and roll and rhythm and blues hits by acts such as Ike and Tina Turner, most of the albums on the Sue label were jazz, for example by the Ray Bryant Combo, Ernestine Anderson and Jimmy McGriff. By 1968, not much at all was happening with the label, so Juggy Murray sold Sue Records to United Artists. As part of the deal, Murray kept running the label, such that it was. United Artists, primarily interested in reissuing the back catalog, moved the masters from New York to their storage facility in California and basically left Juggy Murray alone. http://www.bsnpubs.com/nyc/sue/suestory.html
