Promo Ad

This is a full-page advertisement Playboy Records ran in Billboard magazine in 1973 to promote four albums recorded at Trace Recording Studio in Tupelo, Mississippi. The albums were (l-r) "One Time for the Cow" by Smith Vinson, "Doc Kirby & Co." by Pat Malone, "Boppin' Through the Milky Way" by Tim Tutor, and "Black Jack Davy" by David Lee Daniels. A number of Tupelo and North Mississippi musicians played on the four albums, along with musicians from Muscle Shoals, Ala. Sam Phillips of Sun Records in Memphis and Homer Ray Harris of Hi Records, also in Memphis, owned and operated Trace Recording Studio in the early 1970s. In order to move back home to Tupelo (from Memphis) to run Trace studio, Harris sold his interest in Hi Records to R&B artist Al Green.
