Juke Box Special Same as USA 1961 New Juke box Hits Chess LP 1448. Great different picture. Funckler / Artone A legendary label from the late 1950s and early 1960s. Founded with money from Dutch oil barons with a jazz hobby. John Vis and Pete Felleman had the vision to release LPs and EPs in the famous plastic sleeves of labels such as Chess, roulette, cadence, specialty etc. in the Netherlands from the early 1960s. Also many singles from the starting Motown motorcity label. Beautiful photo covers, often a full page in the Muziek Expres since 1962. Artone of Funckler was the label. I assume that Marshall Chess has lobbied here as in the UK for reissues of his Chess label. The story should be well described. Anyway, the label produced many legendary sleeve singles that are highly sought after by collectors. The LPs then for sale for 9.90 are still for sale for reasonable money. I first heard of Howlin’Wolf, Muddy Waters and little Walter, Chuck, Bo and Sonny boy. So this is an LP from that series.
