Barbara George is, alongside Fats Domino, Lee Dorsey, Aaron Neville and Ernie K. Doe, one of the best known singers to come out of New Orleans. She was instrumental in the early success of the A.F.O. label, set up as an artist's co-operative in New Orleans in 1961. Her self-penned hit I Know was the label's only big hit, reaching number 3 on Billboard magazine's Hot 100 and spending 4 weeks at number one on America's R&amp;B chart. It remains one of the most popular of all the records produced in New Orleans. The follow-up You Talk About Love made number 46 on the Hot 100 after which she was lured away from A.F.O. and signed directly to the New York Sue label where she had another Hot 100 hit with Send For Me later in 1962. This CD package collects together her A.F.O. and Sue sides along with all the tracks from her only LP, named after her biggest hit I Know.
