Crown Records was a budget label for the Bahari Brothers, who ran Modern and RPM labels. It started in 1957 and continued
for about a dozen years, earning itself the reputation of the king of the junk record labels. Aside from endlessly reissuing
the legitimate hits that were on Modern and RPM, and the B.B. King material, what Crown had to offer was musical junk food
on plastic plates. The covers and the vinyl were cheaply made, fell apart almost instantly, and the records sounded worn out
right out of the package.
