Aristocrat Records

Aristocrat Records

Aristocrat Records was started in April 1947 by Charles and Evelyn Aron, together with their partners Fred and Mildred Brount and Art Spiegel. By September Leonard Chess had invested in the young record company. Over time, Leonard bought the others out, and by 1948, only he and Evelyn Aron ran the firm. By 1950 Leonard and his brother Phil had become the sole owner and renamed Aristocrat to Chess Records. [cite web
