Red Clyde

This claim is inaccurate. "From 1955 to 1957, he recorded seven vocal jazz albums for Red Clyde's Bethlehem Records".

Red was bought in as A & R director for Gus Wildi's Bethlehem Records following the departure of Creed Taylor. Tyler Alpen apologizes here for his part in creating this incorrectly as fact. http://www.tyleralpern.com/bethlehem.html

where Clyde is referred to as both "head man" and Bethlehem A & R". Clyde came to Bethlehem in mid-'55 among a series of changes. See https://archive.org/details/sim_down-beat_1955-09-21_22_19/page/46/mode/1up?q=%22Red+Clyde%22+%2Bbethlehem

Unless there is any discension, I propose to change to "Gus Wildi's Bethlehem Records for which Red Clyde was Director for A & R. Cathcam (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 22:21, 20 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
