Book about studios
edit“ | House of Hits, the title of a new book about Houston's SugarHill Studios, isn't hyperbole. More than 100 pop smashes were recorded there between George Jones' Why Baby Why in January 1955 and Beyoncé's Dangerously in Love nearly 50 years later. Big songs came before and after those two landmark recordings. Were it titled “House of Great Songs,” the book might be too heavy to lift.
Popular clubs are closed and razed, but SugarHill, which began as Gold Star Studios, has been a rare constant in this no-zoning city that frequently disregards its history. Now a writer and a sound engineer who each moved to Houston in the 1980s have preserved some of the tales behind the music recorded at 5626 Brock, just east of MacGregor Park. |

Merger proposal
editI propose that Gold Star Records be merged into SugarHill Recording Studios. I think that the content in the Gold Star Recordsarticle can easily be explained in the context of SugarHill Recording Studios, and the SugarHill Recording Studiosarticle is of a reasonable size that the merging of Gold Star Records will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned.Falkonry (talk) 02:13, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
