The two 19 year olds from Los Angeles, Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller, they were
just starting out as songwriters.
I think this was maybe their second or third
song they'd ever written at all.
They'd never been to Kansas City but they'd
heard about it.
They thought maybe they could write a song about it, so they did.
And it's been recorded by many, many, many people and I know you know this one.
