Outstanding midwest label. First rate blues, R&B, vocal groups, R'n'R. So glad you highlighted this overlooked label.

Thanks, Dean. Having just heard a couple of Little Milton tracks on Bobbin [and being blown away] I immediately came here to find the motherload. Your efforts never cease to amaze. Thanks.
