Aristocrat Records, sometimes billed as the Aristocrat of Records, was founded in April 1947 by Charles and Evelyn Aron, together with their partners Fred and Mildred Brount and Art Spiegel. By September Leonard Chess had invested in the young record company. Over time, Leonard bought the others out, and by 1948, only he and Evelyn Aron ran the firm. By early 1950 Leonard and his brother Phil had become the sole owners, and in June of that year they changed the company's name from Aristocrat to Chess Records. The Aristocrat brand was officially discontinued in January 1951.

  • Aristocrat Records, sometimes billed as the Aristocrat of Records, was founded in April 1947 by Charles and Evelyn Aron, together with their partners Fred and Mildred Brount and Art Spiegel. By September Leonard Chess had invested in the young record company. Over time, Leonard bought the others out, and by 1948, only he and Evelyn Aron ran the firm. By early 1950 Leonard and his brother Phil had become the sole owners, and in June of that year they changed the company's name from Aristocrat to Chess Records. The Aristocrat brand was officially discontinued in January 1951. In three years, Aristocrat released 183 songs, and recorded 18 more that were released under the new Chess label. On August 27, 1947, Muddy Waters made his first recordings for Aristocrat, which produced the single "Gypsy Woman" b/w "Little Anna Mae". Backing him were bassist Ernest "Big" Crawford and pianist Sunnyland Slim. After a second session in December 1947, Aristocrat released "I Can't Be Satisfied" b/w "Feel Like Goin' Home," which became a minor hit. (en)
  • Aristocrat Records fue una compañía discográfica famosa por lanzar a Muddy Waters. En poco más de tres años de vida, el sello sacó 183 canciones, más otros 18 bajo la nueva marca de Chess Records. Además de Waters, el sello contaba con Gene Ammons, entre otros artistas. Fundada en abril de 1947 por Charles y Evelyn Aron, con Fred y Mildred Brount y Art Spiegel como socios, en septiembre de ese año Leonard Chess invirtió en el negocio. En 1948, solo él y Aron dirigía el sello, y en 1950 Leonard y su hermano Phil se convirtieron en los únicos dueños del sello. En junio de 1950, cambiaron el nombre de la empresa a Chess Records, descontinuando el sello Aristocrat en enero de 1951.​ Aunque había grabado unas canciones para otro sello, fue en agosto o septiembre de 1947 que Muddy Waters grabó por primera vez con Aristocrat, el sencillo "Gypsy Woman"/"Little Anna Mae", con el bajo Big Crawford y el pianista Sunnyland Slim. Una segunda sesión de grabación, en diciembre de 1947, produjo "I Can't Be Satified"/"Feel Like Goin' Home" que se convirtió en un éxito.​ (es)
