I Removed The Annoying Ads

To my followers, I am sorry for the ads I put on the blog, besides the one on the bottom for my genealogy research business- did you know I became an ICAPGen credentialed Accredited Genealogist this Spring? Someone has to have a burning genealogy problem which they want a professional to take a crack at around these parts. If you know anyone in need of a professional genealogist, would you do me a favor and ask them to consider hiring me? I will give anyone who refers me to someone who orders a project a $100 credit towards their next project with me- just make sure to mention this blog by name in any initial contacts with me through my business website: www.myfamilygen.com  

Anyway, I was only earning just over a penny a month, so I figured that ruining the user experience for a very slow buck (i.e., penny) just wasn't worth it. 

Thank you for your patience and understanding, both for the ads and the shameless self-promotion of my genealogy business. 

Have a great day!

Crown Records was the doing of the infamous (depending on who you talk to) Bihari brothers. These men made a living exploiting musicians for their cheap vinyl record empire- which started out as a semi-reputable R&B label through Modern Records. However, even then, their practices of listing themselves as song co-writers when they copyrighted their artist's music before releasing their records foreshadowed the sketchy behavior they engaged in to make a quick buck. By keeping as much of the record sales revenue to themselves, they made a living at the expense of the artists their records featured. 

Between 1957-1972 Crown records turned out around 740 unique album releases, the vast majority of which are already online by those claiming ownership rights of the material. The label issued records of every popular music genre by obscure no-names and older material of more prominent name artists. The odds of one finding a Crown Record at your nearest thrift store is pretty decent; they made them deep and sold them cheap after all.
