label: Description (Brief)
content: <p>Session Records was established as a venture of the Session Record Shop in Chicago, Illinois, in 1943. The shop, operated by Phil and Evie Feathergill, featured original and re-issues of “hot jazz” records. Session’s earliest releases were re-issues of recordings made in Chicago or by artists with Chicago associations in the early 1920s. Many of these original recordings were mostly out of print and difficult for jazz enthusiasts and collectors to find. The earliest pressings were labeled “Reissue Session,” with a copyright of 1943 or 1944. After the Feathergill’s moved to Los Angeles in 1946, new pressings were released with “Reissue” on the label and a copyright of “1946 W. P. Feathergill."</p>
