Why the Harrison's name?...

After leaving the Scholars(see in this blog),Roger's first group, he recorded and released two 45's on the Carlton label as Kenneth Rogers,during that time,his friend,Ray Dogget,gave him the songs _Mine Alone/So Unimportant. because Rogers had signed a short-term contract with Carlton,he could not release the record under his real name....Rogers released the songs under the pseudonym "Lee Harrison" on the Houston, TX. based label Pearl Records and later re-released on the Alabama Judd Records owened by Judd Phillips,brother of Sam Phillips of Sun Records.
