Box-set limited to a worldwide edition of 1,500. Let the Good Times Roll: Dr. John, Barbara Lynn, Johnny Adams Featured On New Box Set. When it comes to two of the most influential labels in New Orleans music history, the vinyl renaissance is definitely in full swing. Ric Records and its sister label Ron Records were founded in 1959 by Joe Ruffino, based in New Orleans. Though the labels were only active for roughly three years, some of New Orleans’ greatest talents passed through the company’s doors. Mac Rebennack, or Dr. John, served as a writer and producer, and even spent time as label president! Harold Battiste (Sam Cooke’s “You Send Me,” Sonny and Cher’s “I Got You, Babe”) was among the other arrangers, and artists on Ric and Ron included Irma Thomas, Professor Longhair, Johnny Adams and Joe Jones. It was Jones who provided Ric with its biggest hit, “You Talk Too Much”, which peaked at No. 3 on the Hot 100 in the fall of 1960. The now-legendary Soul Queen of New Orleans, Irma Thomas recorded her first single “(You Can Have My Husband but) Don’t Mess with My Man” for the Ron label. Rounder Records is celebrating the Ric Records and Ron Records labels with a 10-record box set, From the Vaults of Ric & Ron Records: Rare and Unreleased Recordings 1958-1962. The box, which was first available on Record Store Day, contains ten 45 RPM singles of rare and unreleased material, including the audition recording by Johnny Adams of “I Won’t Cry.” Style: Pop
