Del Swade on the Production label

 


Rockin' Country Style has no location for this label which issued two records both by Del Swade in 1959 and 1960, "A Sound Production Recording, released through Fajam Enterprises " on both labels.  

Del Swade was a member of Local 10-208, Chicago , Ilinois, certainly the location (of his own, no doubt) Production label.

Francis E. Shimandle (his real name) was active in Chicago at least until 1965, when he performed backed by The Key Notes. The group included Dennis Nix, durmmer, formerly with the Benny Goodman band; Eddie Kay of the Dick Contino Show and Riley King.

This Nashville label (indeed located in Nashville, Tennessee) had few releases in the early seventies (including two singles by Bob Folsom and one by Bob Rash).  Charlie Dick, the widower of country legend Patsy Cline, was it's owner, perhaps with the idea of giving a new life to the old Starday's subsidiary, still releasing albums, but no more singles. But the time of the good old country music was over.

Charlie Dick, at this time, was also a promotion man for Starday-King in Nashville.
