I was wrong to say on air that Shirley & Lee "invented ska" in the United States in 1952.
It's just that "I'm Gone" sounds soooo Jamaican. Let's say they invented Jamaican R & B.
New Orleans singing duo Shirley Goodman & Leonard Lee recorded "I'm Gone" with Dave Bartholomew, Fats Domino's producer, and this tune turned out to be such a shining example of New Orleans R&B, it is now well-known as the immediate progenitor of Jamaican R&B.
Still sounds great!
