Johnson City appears on record labels through part of 1950, the year when the operation was moved briefly to Campbellsville.

[edit]
  • LaFave, Remmert form new label, By Michael Corcoran, AMERICAN-STATESMAN STAFF Saturday, October 04, 2008 source URL

Singer Jimmy LaFave and Cedar Creek studio owner Fred Remmert have launched Music Road Records, with a initial roster that includes not only LaFave, but the Subdudes, John Inmon and the Woody Guthrie tribute project.

Within the next couple of months, Music Road will release the LaFave rarities set "Bohemia Beat Collection," which includes live radio performances and unreleased studio tracks from 10 to 12 years ago.

Remmert says LaFave owed Minnesota's Red House Records one more album, but he was able to get out of that deal to release his next studio LP on Music Road, which has financial backing from a Dallas businessman
