Lew Bedell
Lewis Joseph "Lew" (or "Lou") Bedell (March 21, 1919 – July 6, 2000)〔( Lou Bedell at Black Cat Rockabilly ). Retrieved 14 February 2013〕 was an American music business executive and comic entertainer who founded Era Records and then Doré Records in Los Angeles, California in the 1950s. Originally named Lewis Joseph Bedinsky, he also used the pseudonyms Louis Bideu and Billy Joe Hunter, among others.
==Early life==
Lewis Bedinsky was born in El Paso, Texas, the son of Joseph Bedinsky, a Jewish immigrant from Odessa, Ukraine, who owned a small garment factory in the town, and his wife Sara (née Newman) who had been born in New York City. His parents divorced when he was a child, and he moved with his mother and uncle, Max Newman, to Boyle Heights in Los Angeles. He attended Los Angeles City College and then Santa Barbara State College.〔( West Texas Music Hall of Fame: Billy Joe & The Checkmates ). Retrieved 14 February 2013〕 In 1941, he and his mother changed their surname by decree to Bedell.〔( Rob Finnis, ''Liner notes: The Dore Story Vol.1'', 2011, reprinted at LinerNotes.com ). Retrieved 14 February 2013〕
During World War II, he worked in an aircraft factory, but in 1946 he teamed up with college friend Doug Mattson to form a comedy duo. Bedell and Mattson appeared together in clubs in San Francisco, Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe, New York City and elsewhere, performing an act that involved them miming and clowning around on stage to current pop hits and comedy records such as those by Spike Jones. By the early 1950s, the pair had become resident comedians at Billy Gray's Band Box, a supper club on Fairfax Avenue in Los Angeles. The pair split up in 1953, and Bedell began working as a solo comedian on Los Angeles TV station KTLA, as well as continuing in clubs.〔 He also had a short-lived TV show, ''The Lew Bedell Show'', on WOR-TV in New York City in the early 1950s.〔
By 1955 Bedell had started work for a music publisher, Meadowlark Music.〔 That year he set up a new record label, Era, with his uncle Max Newman and cousin Herb Newman, and became its comptroller. The company soon appointed Buddy Bregman as musical director, and he in turn brought singer Gogi Grant to the label. Grant's successes with songs like "Suddenly There's a Valley" and "The Wayward Wind", co-written by Herb Newman, established the Era label. This was consolidated after the label won an action against Grant for breach of contract when she signed with RCA in 1957. Era signed several singers, such as Glen Glenn, in an attempt to break into the rock and roll market, but had little success. However, in 1958 the label had another major hit with "Chanson d'Amour", by Art and Dotty Todd.〔
Bedell married Dolores Ethel Mae "DeDe" Barrymore (born 1930) in 1956. She was the divorced daughter of actors John Barrymore and Dolores Costello. The couple had two children: a son, Doré Lewis Bedell (born 1957), who was named for Lew Bedell's grandmother Dora; and a daughter Stephanie Mae Bedell (born 1966). DeDe also had two children from her first marriage.〔
