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 as a semi-reputable R&B label through Modern Records. However, even then, their practices of listing themselves as co-writers of the songs they submitted when they copyrighted their artists' music before releasing their records foreshadowed their sketchy behavior 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 and 1972, Crown Records turned out around 740 unique album releases. The vast majority of these are already online by those who claim to have 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 finding a Crown Record at your nearest thrift store are decent; they made them deep and sold them cheaply, as the old cliché goes.
