BIRTHSTONE RECORDS stammte aus Tacoma, Washington,
und wurde wohl von Art Mineo und Toni Mineo und ihrem
Verlag Mineo & Mineo Music geführt.
ART MINEO, eigentlich ATTILIO MINEO (bei 20th Fox: ART LIBERO)
wurde hier als 1918 geboren beschrieben:

ART MINEO lebte vom 28. August 1918, als er in Brooklyn, NY,
geboren wurde, bis zum 27. Juli 2010, als er in Tacoma, WA,
mit knapp 92 Jahren verstarb.
Sein Nachruf:
Tuesday morning, July 27, 2010, Arthur “Artie” Francis Mineo passed away with his loving wife and son, Toni and Gene at his side at Tacoma General Hospital. Artie (as his friends knew him) was 91 years old. He was taken by pulmonary fibrosis.
A resident of Tacoma since 1945, Artie was born to Italian immigrant parents (Joe and Maria Mineo) in Brooklyn, New York on August 28, 1918. Along with his two siblings (Gene and Stella), Artie’s early years were energetic and colorful. He often regaled his many Tacoma friends with stories of Brooklyn street life. He fell in love with music while a student at Bushwick High School in Brooklyn. His plans to enter Julliard School of Music were interrupted by the outbreak of World War II. In the Army, he was part of the White House band that performed for President Roosevelt and was commended for raising large amounts of money for the war effort. He met his future wife, Antoinette (Toni) Lento while stationed at Fort Lewis Washington. Their common bonds were music, Italian food, and joy. On July 22, 2010 Artie and Toni celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary.
Mostly self taught, Artie composed five operas, the official symphonic music of the Seattle’s World Fair, recorded for Columbia and Epic Records in New York and wrote many songs. The musical work he was most proud of was the music he composed with his wife, Toni.
A professional musician all his life, he earned his “bread” working in big bands on the east coast in his early years, and in Tacoma at the New Yorker night club where he was the band leader for 23 years. In his career he worked with many well known musicians such as Paul Whiteman, Vincent Lopez, Skitch Henderson, Flip Phillips, Corky Corcoran and many more.
He received awards from Brigham Young University, the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers, and was a member of the Disabled American Veterans.

TONI MINEO, eigentlich Antoinette Lento, hatte mit ihren Schwestern Lou (1924 - 2016)
und Rosemary in Tacoma in den frühen 40er Jahren Musik gemacht.
Es gab Platten, die im Vertrieb von Laurie Records waren.
Es gab mit LEE PARKER auch eine Pressung mit der Bestellnummer
und Präfix 'LP' (Lee Parker?), was einer Privatpressung
entsprechen könnte.
