QRS Records
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
QRS Records is a United States record label which produced notable jazz and blues recordings in the early twentieth century. The QRS company began in 1900 as a manufacturer of piano rolls, and their record label was established in 1928 by Arthur Satherly, who had been an executive at Paramount Records.
Among the artists who recorded for QRS Records were Clifford Gibson, Sara Martin and Edith North Johnson, as well as the preacher Missionary Josephine Miles. The company continued pressing records until at least the early 1930s, although the company continues as a manufacturer of piano rolls and music software to this day.
The audio quality of the 1920s QRS records is below average for the period,
