He was best known as co-owner and president of TK Records, but reportedly set up over 100 record labels, and was responsible for over 100 million record sales across the world.〔 He was described as "an acute businessman who always made sure that contracts and publishing agreements were written in his favor."〔 ==Early life== Born in the Bronx as Henry David Epstein,〔( "Henry Stone: The 'Godfather of the Miami Sound', known for his work with George McCrae, Timmy Thomas and Anita Ward", ''The Independent'', 30 October 2014 ).
