Notability points:

  • 1) Shellac 78 record era company. I argue that record companies from this era tend to be notable in themselves, as making records in that era needed a considerable amount of industrial investment, quite unlike how easy it was to start what was called a "record company" in recent decades.
  • 2)Important in the New Orleans traditional jazz revival era. If the New Orleans jazz revival is notable, this label is.
  • 3) Notable musicians who Wikipedia has articles on recorded for label.

I don't really know what "notable in themselves" means. But I do know these comments fail to distinguish between "I think this is important" and Wikipedia's rules for notability. Consequently, a lot of other people's time and effort gets wasted. Everything on Wikipedia comes from published sources. Availability of material takes precedence, otherwise there's nothing to write. We're not fiction writers. We don't make this stuff up.
