Happy Fathers Day To The Fathers Who Helped Made Us, Quinn Records TM
FATHERS DAY WEEKEND - Happy Fathers Day To The Fathers Who Helped Made Us, Quinn Records TM
From: Dwight Quinn,Founder/Quinn Records TM
I often think about the guys who came along during my earlier years in the business, who had the faith in my idea,enough so, to lend me their talent,knowledge and prudence that I still uses today. Starting with late Lil Aaron Mosby, through him I picked upon the humbleness that he presented also his deep undivided care and concerns that he had for other people. Those who knew Lil Aaron, while he was a live couldn't help from recognizing and picking upon , how polite and manner-able this man was, it just came natural for Lil Aaron to be polite. Lil Aaron never thought that he was a great Blues singer, he would always tell me Quinn,I don't get up there and sing,but instead I get up there and I talk to my audience. I learnt something new. The Late great Gospel singer,Reverend Anderson Sparks,a great motivator he believe in what we were trying to accomplish in the early days of our existence and Rev. Sparks jumped right into the business side of the company and things just flourish. Rev. Anderson Sparks is the person that was responsible for single-handily building the Gospel side of Quinn Records TM. Until this day, I would had never have thought that a great Gospel singer as the late Rev.Anderson Sparks knew so much about the Record business as he did, he taught me a lot about, the what and the way we do business today. Rev. Sparks understood the pros and cons of marketing,promoting and the importance of artists in this business,keeping themselves highly visible,with the purpose of building huge fan bases the key necessity needed in order to build a stable career in the Entertainment business. And all the way up until his death, Rev. Sparks would always make it a practice to hand carry our promo records to Radio Stations all across the country between, pastoring his Church,recording and performing live shows. Because of that " don't ease up-until the job is done"mentality of Rev. Anderson Sparks we have little patient for sleepers. Other great Fathers like the late Terry"Dewey" Williams,"Jimmy Jones and my mentor and former coffee buddy the late Leroy Crisp, I credit these men with all the wisdom,faith helping hands that they reached out to me and Quinn Records TM and made us what we are today. We're not a big Company in size, we're just a Company that do big things. And I say,Happy Fathers Day to them all. And thanks for their faith and support and as promised we will keep the fire a burning.....

DIGITAL STORES BECOMING THE PRIMARY OUTLET FOR BUYING ALBUMS
by Dwight L. Quinn
Last year, 193 million CD's were sold vs. 118 million digital albums, according to Nielsen Soundscan's year-end data report.
In the album format,digital jumped 6% in 2012, though fans still favor the physical version.
While album sales at digital services outpaced those at mass merchants, they were far
exceeded by the combined sales of physical albums at all outlets.
The breakdown in total album sales:
CD's, cost more than downloads, have been allocated far less shelf space at Mass Merchants like Best Buy,Walmart,Target and other chains, fueling digital sale increases.
Digital is consistently growing, and that's to be expected as we get away from physical
purchases and get further into streams and music that nobody actually owns.
Its the price of progress.
And yet the LP comeback is flourishing. While only a small piece of the musical pie, vinyl rose 19%, reaching 4.6 million copies in 2012, breaking the 2011 record of 3.9 million.
The wax-is-back, the old way of experiencing music continues to grow every year.
"A lot of people still want something with value, an element that music have always been able
to give to its users."
