- Q22079505 abstract "Supreme Records (Los Angeles) was a small, independent record label in Los Angeles that was in operation from 1947 to 1950. It was founded by dentist Albert Patrick and specialized in Rhythm and Blues. Among the artists who were released on label were Jimmy Witherspoon, Paula Watson, Buddy Tate, Eddie Williams and his Brown Buddies (with Floyd Dixon), Big Jim Wynn and Percy Mayfield.The label's two greatest hits were Paula Watson's A Little Bird Told Me that sold over a million copies and Jimmy Witherspoon's version of Ain't Nobody's Business, that he recorded on Albert Patrick's request, and that lasted 34 weeks on Billboard's Rhythm & Blues hit list.The label got involved in a costly lawsuit against Decca for copyright infringement on the arrangement of Paula Watson's version of A Little Bird Told Me, with their version of Evelyn Knight. The judge ruled in favor of Decca, stating that arrangements on an existing composition cannot be considered as property. He also stated that the arrangement on Watson's version lacked originality and the differences between the versions were evident.In another lawsuit the label lost its pressing and distribution partner Black & White records, after settling a dispute over Black & White selling its pressing line to Monogram in Canada.The lawsuits proved to be too costly for the label and in 1950 it ceased operation. Most of the masters were sold to Swing Time Records. The promising "Two Years Of Torture" of Percy Mayfield got a re-release at John Dolphin's Recorded In Hollywood label.".
