In this episode of Memphis Musicology, we explore the life of Style Wooten, an enigmatic and eccentric record label owner who specialized in vanity recordings.

Uninhibited, authentic, and deeply soulful, the music of Designer Records is a window into a bygone era of Southern gospel and a further testament to the fact that some of the best music is buried deep underground.
