Ultra Rare Fortune & Hi-Q

 


Compiled by the late Rockin' Gypsy at the end of the last century.

Fortune Records was formed by composer-lyricist Devora Brown and her husband Jack in Detroit.  Devora came to Detroit from Cleveland, Ohio and was introduced to Jack Brown through a blind date set up by a friend. Devora was already writing poems and songs, even though Jack was working as an accountant at the time, he liked her songs and encouraged her to send them to a few music publishers. By this time Devora married Jack Brown, and in 1947 after little response from other publishers they decided to start a publishing company and record the songs themselves.
