Not Lame Recordings was a Ft. Collins, Colorado, United States based independent record label specializing in power pop releases.〔Cornell, Rick (10-01-2001). ("Pure Pop For Now People" ). Indy Week.com.〕 The company was started by Bruce Brodeen in November 1994〔Not Lame Recordings (2010). ("About us" ). Retrieved November 17, 2010.〕 It quickly became the center of a small but ever expanding cult of those devoted to the guitar and harmony driven retro-rock known as power pop.〔Dr. Bristol's Prescription (11-16-2010). ("R.I.P. Not Lame Recordings" ).〕 After 16 years of operation, the label finally shut down on November 24, 2010.〔Brodeen, Bruce (2010). ("Not Lame goodbye" ). Retrieved November 17, 2010.〕 The reasons Brodeen mentioned for his decision were a career switch he had undertaken, combined with decreasing music sales in recent years in an already small market for CDs in the power pop genre.〔〔 Brodeen is looking to introduce (Pop Geek Heaven ), an online interactive social media site, as a successor to Not Lame's role within the power pop community. In its 16-year existence, Not Lame released over 100 albums, including the annual 3-CD compilation of the International Pop Overthrow festival from 1997 through 2010 (with later years being brought out by Brodeen privately).〔Not Lame Recordings (2010). ("All Not Lame label CDs still in available!" ) Retrieved November 17, 2010.〕 The label also released albums for artists like Tommy Keene, Dwight Twilley, 〔Ruhlmann, William. ("Review: Dwight Twilley: Between the Cracks Vol. 1" ). Allmusic Guide.〕 Doug Powell, and Mark Helm, as well as bands such as Myracle Brah,〔Prato, Greg. ("Myracle Brah: Music Biography )". Allmusic Guide.〕 The Deal,〔Loftus, Johnny. ("Review: The Deal, Goodbye September" ). Allmusic Guide.〕 Sweet Apple Pie, Hawks, and Wanderlust; and box sets for such notables as Jellyfish and The Posies.〔 The company's online store has sold over 15,000 different CD releases.〔 ==See also== *List of record labels * *List of power pop artists and songs 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Not Lame Recordings」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
