Subject: RE: Stinson Records Revisted
No less than ten years of doing business and Stinson Trading Company remains a distributor, not a record label proper.

The old 'Worker Joe' bootleg record label was revived for a new line of Soviet-American dubs; liner notes by Noel Meadow. It is his, and not Prosky or Harris, that is the first name to actually appear on a Stinson release, not counting the artists themselves and (Charlie) Stinson of course.
