Howard Seratt

about

The name Howard Seratt had been an intriguing imprint on the label of an obscure Sun 78. There had only been one Sun record, because Sam Phillips had wanted Howard to reach a bigger market through singing country songs, and Howard's strongly-felt religious views had prevented him from taking that route. Besides the two Sun recordings, issued on Sun 198, it turned out that two other songs had been recorded at Sun and issued on a custom label St. Francis. Howard was born in Manilla, Arkansas, on March 9, 1922. He was a highly skilled watchmaker, who owned Howard's Jewelry Store in San Jacinto, California. The local newspaper had written him up as Businessman of the week in March 1971, revealing the story of a well-liked pillar of the religious and business community, without even mentioning Howard's other carreer in music User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
