  • Imperial Singles Labels
    Imperial Singles Labels Imperial Records of Los Angeles incorporated on June 29, 1946, and started in August. At the time they primarily recorded folk dances from masters that were provided to them and hired local Chicanos to record Mexican music. Although this music credited authors such as “Jesus Ramos” and “Victor Cordero,” the Catalogue of Copyright Entries for musical compositions in 1946 shows that all of the songs were credited to Lewis Chudd and Max Feirtag – the owners of Imperial Records – with Feirtag contributing the lyrics. The new label began soliciting local singers. Fernando Rosas had released three singles for the local (LA) label, Discos Mexico immediately prior to cutting discs for Discos Imperiales. Imperial also recorded several singles with the popular group, Los Madrugadores. The company was first mentioned in the October 19, 1946, issue of Billboard, as distributing a folk line and a line of Chicano music labeled Discos Imperiales. The folk line started its numbering with 1000, while the Latino line began with 100. DI46 The first Discos Imperiales label was orange with dark print. There was no manufacturer address at the top of the label. DI47 At around single 115, Discos Imperiales added “Made in USA” and the company address to the top of the label. Later that year – possibly as early as catalog number 147 – the label was changed to Imperial, and earlier pressings were reissued onto the IM47 label, below. Meanwhile the folk dance line (1000 series) had been using a custom label. It, too, was folded into the standard Imperial label. IM47 About to expand from its status as a label catering to Mexican music and folk dance, Imperial introduced the orange label.

  • Fats Domino, Early Rock 'N' Roller with a Boogie-Woogie Piano, Is Dead at 89
    Fats Domino, Early Rock ’n’ Roller With a Boogie-Woogie Piano, Is Dead at 89 https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/25/obituaries/fats-domino-89-one-of-rock-n-rolls-first-stars-is-dead.html October 25, 2017 By JON PARELES and WILLIAM GRIMES Fats Domino in 1967. Fats Domino, the New Orleans rhythm-and-blues singer whose two-fisted boogie-woogie piano and nonchalant vocals, heard on dozens of hits, made him one of the biggest stars of the early rock ’n’ roll era, died on Tuesday at his home in Harvey, La., across the Mississippi River from New Orleans. He was 89. His death was confirmed by the Jefferson Parish coroner’s office. Mr. Domino had more than three dozen Top 40 pop hits through the 1950s and early ’60s, among them “Blueberry Hill,” “Ain’t It a Shame” (also known as “Ain’t That a Shame,” which is the actual lyric), “I’m Walkin’,” “Blue !1 Monday” and “Walkin’ to New Orleans.” Throughout he displayed both the buoyant spirit of New Orleans, his hometown, and a droll resilience that reached listeners worldwide. He sold 65 million singles in those years, with 23 gold records, making him second only to Elvis Presley as a commercial force. Presley acknowledged Mr. Domino as a predecessor. “A lot of people seem to think I started this business,” Presley told Jet magazine in 1957. “But rock ’n’ roll was here a long time before I came along. Nobody can sing that music like colored people. Let’s face it: I can’t sing it like Fats Domino can.
