Philadelphia Record Labels: 45RPM Discography

"Dave Louis, historian, label owner and collector recently self-published Philadelphia Record Labels: 45 RPM Discography - one of the most comprehensive collections of small and independent 45 RPM labels coming out of one of the most important music cities in the world.  Philadelphia has been long known for its amazing studios (ie: Virtue, Sigma, Impact) and its proximity to both FrankFord / Wayne (later known as Masterworks) mastering house and Disc Makers pressing plant. All these elements combined created a fertile environment throughout the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s (and 80's) producing the perfect situation for small independent labels.  Producer run, studio owner lead and even artist owned labels flourished in Philadelphia during these years. 

Until now books have been published documenting this amazing scene, however in this book you will find the most comprehensive lists of small indy’s complete discographies.

Compiled by master collector Dave Louis, who has been for over 40 years tracking down artist, label owners and the rarest of the rare 45 RPM recordings all the while taking notes, scanning labels and finding links between publishing companies, writers and arrangers, studio marks and other matrix information.  Dave has been able to compile the most complete lists of labels like Del-Val, Crossfire, Virtue to date - You will not be disappointed.
