ELEKTRA RECORDS PROUDLY PRESENTS ITS NEW AFFILIATE LABEL

CRESTVIEW is one hell of a name for a lion or a new label but actually we had another name all picked out and registered and then some other cat started using it and we could've sued but didn't because we're in the record business not the suing business and besides they were nice people and so we were stuck for a fresh name and we thought and argued, hemmed and hawed and decided to tag the new offspring after our west coast office's telephone exchange and if we ever start a third label we promise not to name it something silly like Yukon or Worth, Trafalgar or Riverside, but the purpose of all this is to say "Hello" and to tell you that Crestview releases will have the same high standards of quality as Elektra, and to please let us into your store and besides our distributors can use the business.
