Cub was a subsidiary label of MGM. The biggest hit for the label was the Impalas' "Sorry (I Ran All
The way Home)", which made #2 in early 1959. Because it was the subsidiary of a major label,
recordings were first-rate. The Impalas' album came out in stereo, and is highly sought after as a
collectors' item.
