Ahmet Ertegün: Perbedaan antara revisi

Pada 1960-an, Ahmet mendengar contoh rekaman [[Led Zeppelin]] dan mengetahui bahwa mereka akan menjadi kelompok terkenal setelah mendengar beberapa lagu pertamanya. Dengan segera ia mengontrak mereka. Ia juga meyakinkan [[Crosby, Stills & Nash (and Young)|Crosby, Stills and Nash]] untuk mengizinkan [[Neil Young]] untuk bergabung dengan tur mereka, dan dengan demikian membentuk [[Crosby, Stills & Nash (and Young)|Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young]]. Ertegün menolong memperkenalkan Amerika kepada [[blue-eyed soul]] (''soul bermata biru'') ketika ia menemukan [[The Rascals]] di sebuah kelab malam di [[Westhampton]] pada [[1965]] dan mengontrak mereka dengan Atlantic. Mereka berhasil menduduki tempat ke-13 dari rekaman tunggal [[top 40 (radio format)|top 40]] dalam empat tahun dan dimasukkan ke dalam [[Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame]] pada [[1997]].

The Ertegüns' primary musical interest was jazz. In the 1940s, while living in [[Los Angeles]], Nasuhi owned the Jazz Man Record Shop, which, in addition to selling jazz records produced by other labels, also produced their own on the Jazz Man and Crescent labels. At Jazz Man, Nasuhi produced the classic Kid Ory revival recordings in 1944 and 1945. In the early 1950s, Nasuhi worked at his friend, Lester Koenig's, [[Contemporary Records]]. When Les Koenig was approached by Lawrence Morton of the UCLA music department to teach a course in jazz at UCLA, he recommended Nasuhi. Nasuhi thus taught the first course in jazz taught at a major American university. At Atlantic, Nasuhi produced records for artists like [[John Coltrane]], [[Charles Mingus]], [[Ornette Coleman]], [[Les McCann]] and [[Hank Crawford]]. Both brothers promoted jazz concerts, founded jazz record companies, and organized jazz bands. Nevertheless, they were also open to more modern popular styles and worked with such famous artists as [[Sonny and Cher]].
