Argo's first big hit was by New Orleans performer Clarence "Frogman" Henry, whose classic "Ain't Got No Home" came out in 1956.[4] By 1960, major rhythm and blues performers on the label included Etta James and The Dells.[5] Argo changed its name in 1965 to Cadet Records when the company discovered that an Argo Records already existed in the UK.[6] (See the Cadet article for a list of some of the Argo/Cadet recording artists.)"
