recording Black artists - capital B?

[edit]

The introduction says: recording Black artists, and to get Black music .
I'd suggest: write "recording black artists", and "to get black music" (even better: let's describe 'black music', instead of using a label). Or is there a new political-correctness, capitalising Black? -DePiep 14:06, 13 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Other companies known as Sun Records

[edit]

The information on other companies that have nothing to do with this one should be removed from the article. Propaniac (talk) 20:28, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The subject of the article is "Sun Records". However I have split off an article for Sun Records not run by Sam Phillips as Sun Records (other companies). Further improvements welcome. -- Infrogmation (talk) 17:51, 30 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not Sun Records, but Sun Record Company

[edit]

The official (so solely right) names of this record company from 1952 to 1969 are Sun Record Company and Sun Record Co., Inc.. Its registered label is Sun, bought in 1969 by Sun International Corporation, renamed in 1987 to Sun Entertainment Corporation.

So, this article alleges the unofficial alias of the company. Is it a function of Wikipedia?

Let's not be so legalistic. It is quite common on Wikipedia to use the commonly used name, which is simply "Sun Records". I think it's safe to assume that the vast majority of people familiar with the label, including many of the artists, knew it as "Sun" or "Sun Records".
