“Timmy Thomas is a Tasmanian Monster on Glade, owned by Miami Distributor, Henry Stone. We pulled this record out of the corner of deep left field weeks ago. It is now the number one selling r&b record in the nation. We predict it will sell 2 million records and will definitely become the No. 1 record in the country. To show you how accurate our predictions were on this obscure record, we will now list the heavyweight pop stations that just added it: WCSO, KSRC, WIXY, WAYS, WXLW, KJRB, WOKY, KJR, KLIF, WIBG. It is smashing No. 6 at CKLW.”
From 1946 to 2014, Henry Stone ruled the Florida music industry with an iron fist, a brick of cash, and a warehouse full of vinyl. HSM is the last of over one hundred record labels he personally founded. The HSM record label includes works from every decade in his sixty-five year career right up until today. Licensing available for film, samples, advertising, movies, video games, and more. Family owned and operated.
