The label was based at 5603, 16th Street, Detroit and ran from around 1968 to 1970. The owners Butler Lee Abney and Armond Abney had seen how successful Golden World was copying Motown. The brothers and business partners, like so many other tiny indie label founders in Detroit in the 1960s, thought they could make some money producing and selling records, writing and publishing songs, and managing singing acts. Johnny Adams 45 also released on Gone (1964) and Roulette. Superlatives not same group who recorded on Uptite. Yellow=Northern plays
