Released in 1959, it was #1 on the R&B charts for seven consecutive weeks and #1 on the pop charts for two weeks. Written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, whose catalog of hits includes “Jailhouse Rock” and “Smokey Joe’s Cafe,” the song was originally titled, “K.C. Lovin.'” Harrison’s limited chart success after Kansas City wasn’t due to not trying. Over the years he would cut nearly three dozen singles. He toured extensively with a backing band called “The Roamers”. In 1969 Harrison recorded “Let’s Work Together (Part 1),” which reached the pop chart. His last chart record was “My Heart Is Yours,” released in 1971. Kansas City was chosen by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio, as one of the 500 songs that shaped Rock and Roll. He died at age 65 in Spencer, NC without a dime to his name. Harrison was inducted posthumously into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2001 for his 1959 recording of Kansas City. He was laid to rest at North Pinewood Cemetery in Charlotte, North Carolina.
