Biography - Hot Shots From Hollywood    USA

Hot Shots From Hollywood, est. in 1936 by John Collins "Jack" McClelland (1900-1973), released mildly raunchy "party records" that featured artists like the Hollywood Hooters and pianist Ben Light (of later Tempo fame) and his Surf Club Boys.

The target audience appear to have been jukebox patrons because most of these records feature the same title on both sides. A few later releases, however, combine two different tracks, as on the Hollywood Hot Shots label that replaced Hot Shots From Hollywood in 1937.

Earliest labels are peach-colored with black print and say "Recorded in Hollywood" at the bottom. Slightly later labels add below that the phrase "Not Licensed For Radio Broadcasting." Still later labels show yellow label color, like the successor label Hollywood Hot Shots.
