- Title
The Mighty Monarch of the Air: A Short History of the Short Life of Majestic Records.
- Authors
LEWIS, DAVID N.
- Abstract
One of those 78-rpm labels that often prove frustrating to discographers is Majestic, a common relic from between the recording bans that in some cases include desirable material and artists, but about which little substantive information is to be found in one place. How many of these were made? How long did it last? Who is on this label? Majestic is widely thought as one of Eli Oberstein's labels, as it continues from Obie's Hit label, and many of its releases resurfaced on later LP and EP releases from Oberstein's 1950s era factory of cheap records. However, Oberstein's connection with the Majestic label proper was at best intermittent. This is intended as a short summary of what information is available regarding Majestic.
