Tennessee Records

Tennessee mostly released country music, but the label's biggest hit was "Down Yonder", a ragtime piano performance by Del Wood in 1950.

Other Tennessee Records performers included Edgar Clayton, Helen Carter, Roy Hall, Snooky Lanson and Mississippi Slim.

Tennessee Records (along with the Republic label) was owned by Alvin and Reynolds Bubis.

Ted Jarrett continued on with his Valdot, Poncello, Ref-O-Ree and Tee-Jaye labels, remaining active in the music business until his death in 2009.

The Tennessee and Republic catalogs are now owned jointly by Bluesland Productions and SnailWorx/S.
