GOLD STAR RECORDINGS

Hallo,
mein Versuch einer Label-Disco................. mit einigen bisher unbekannten Interpreten.

Gold Star Recording Company
Gold Star Records ist ein amerikanisches Independent-Plattenlabel, das 1941 gegründet wurde.
Gold Star Recording Company und Gold Star Sound Services

William "Bill" Quinn war in den Aufnahmestudios bei unterschiedlichsten Interpreten als Multi-Instrumentalist ([steel], [drums]) unterwegs, steuerte die Aufnahmen als Studio-Ingenieur (u.a. bei Sonny Burns, Big Bopper, Rudy Grayzell, Floyd Tillman, Hank Locklin, Frankie Miller, bei Sarg Records), betrieb in Houston ein ein eigenes Aufnahmestudio und trat als Produzent (u.a. bei Eddie Noack, Lighnin‘ Hopkins, Sleepy LaBeef) und Komponist (u.a. für Lighnin‘ Hopkins, Link Davis, Harry Choates) in Erscheinung.

Die Gold Star Recording Company entstand als Tonstudio in Houston/Texas und wurde im Oktober 1941 von William "Bill" Quinn unter dem Namen Quinn Recording Company gegründet. 1950 änderte Quinn den Namen des Studios in Gold Star Studios und bleibt damit das älteste registrierte Aufnahmestudio im Südosten der Vereinigten Staaten.

Zunächst hatte er das Label Gold Star Records gegründet und konnte 1947 mit “Jole Blon“, interpretiert von Harry Coates einein ersten Hit einfahren.

Das Studio war wichtig für den Start der Karrieren von Künstlern wie Lightnin' Hopkins, Harry Choates, George Jones, Eddie Noack, The Sir Douglas Quintet, Roy Head und Freddy Fender. Damals war der Betrieb für einfallsreiche Aufnahmegeräte und seinen Hallraum bekannt. Quinn veröffentlichte auch mehrere Cajun-Songs auf seinem Opera-Label.

Gold Star Records enthielt Blues, Country-Music (damals noch allgemein als Hillbilly-Music bekannt) und Cajun-Music. In seinen ersten Geschäftsjahren nahm Bill Quinn auch Radiowerbung auf und fügte eine Neuheit hinzu, die aufgezeichnete Geburtstagsgrüße anbot.

Die bedeutendste Änderung war die Veröffentlichung ihres ersten Hit-Albums “Jole Blon“ von Harry Choates, einem Swing- und Dance-Song, der als erster und einziger Cajun-Song die Billboard Top 5 erreichte. Sein lokales Presswerk konnte nicht mithalten und er autorisierte andere unabhängige Labels, Kopien dieser Platte im ganzen Land zu produzieren, wie Modern Records (Nr. 20-511), Starday (Nr. 187), D Records (Nr. 1024) und Deluxe.

Hallo Heino!
GOLD STAR wurde von Bill Quinn in erster Linie als Aufnahmestudio gegründet und wie in solchen Fällen sehr oft üblich, ging damit auch eine Labelgründung einher und als Labelname wurde natürlich GOLD STAR gewählt. Dieses Label blieb aber auf Schellacks beschränkt und endete daher bereits 1951. Vermutlich war Bill Quinn's Interesse für die Musik-Produktionen weit größer als für den Tonträger. Eine einzige Ausnahme gab es allerdings, denn der größte Erfolg von GOLD STAR wurde kurz vor Einstellung der GOLD STAR-Single-Serie sogar noch zu einer 45er (siehe #6). Die weiteren Veröffentlichungen gab es dann nurmehr in Form eines Customer-Programmes mit unterschiedlichen Labelnamen, die aber immer als GOLD STAR-Produktion erkennbar waren, weil die GS-Nummer meist auf dem Label, nur in seltenen Fällen im Deadwax, zu finden war.
Die von Billy vorgestellten Aufnahmen sind durchwegs GOLD STAR-Produktionen.
Zur Orientierung die jeweiligen Labels mit Veröffentlichungsdatum.
