Paradise Records Paradise Records was a U.S. record label started by Leon Russell in 1976. The company established offices in Los Angeles. Paradise Records was the second record label company started by Russell. The first was Shelter Records started by Leon Russell and Denny Cordell that operated from 1969 to 1981. Shelter Records had offices in both Los Angeles and Tulsa, Russell's home town, where the label sought to promote a "workshop atmosphere" with a recording studio in a converted church, adjoining houses for artists working at the studio, and other facilities. Russell remained with Shelter until 1976, when he and Cordell fell out. In a settlement, Cordell then became sole owner of the Shelter Records label and Russell then departed to start his own label, Paradise Records. Leon Russell had already received five US Gold records under Shelter Records. Paradise Records had a recording studio in Burbank, California and also made music videos in the recording studio. Paradise Records was learning place for members of Concrete Blonde and Steve Ripley, both later started the country retro group, "The Tractors." Leon also took the First Church of God at Third and Trenton in Tulsa and transformed it into The Church Studio. Church Studio still stands and is now home of Steve Ripley and The Tractors.

Sawyer's Sawyer's, Inc. was an American manufacturer and retailer of slide projectors, scenic slides, View-Master reels and viewers, postcards, and related products, based in Portland, Oregon. Founded in 1914 as a photo-finishing company, Sawyer's began producing and selling View-Masters in 1939, and that soon became its primary product. It later diversified into other photographic products, mostly related to film transparencies, and established manufacturing plants in Europe, Japan and India. By the early 1960s, Sawyer's was the nation's second-largest manufacturer of slide projectors, and by 1965 slide projectors had surpassed View-Master reels and equipment as a percentage of the company's annual sales. In 1951, the company moved from Portland proper to the unincorporated Progress area in Portland's southwestern suburbs. In 1966, Sawyer's was acquired by New York-based General Aniline & Film (GAF), and its product lines and facilities were taken over by GAF. It was a subsidiary company of GAF until 1968, when it became simply a division of that company, renamed the GAF Consumer Photo Division.
