Sound Of Nashville

Profile:

Sound Of Nashville was a record pressing plant located in Nashville, Tennessee, founded by Robert R. Nelson. It operated from approximately 1962 to 1980 and specialized in custom pressings for small independent regional labels such as Sound Of Nashville, Inc.

Pressings can be identified by a matrix scheme starting with the acronym SoN and followed by a sequential number.
The sequential part of the matrix number can be entered into the Pressed By field, without the leading SoN and without the side designators.

Example: Harry Deal And The Galaxies - Smacky Mouth
Matrix / Runout (Side A label): SoN 4161
Matrix / Runout (Side B label): SoN 4162
> Pressed By – Sound Of Nashville – 416

Note: Do not confuse with Sonic Recording Products, Inc., who also used the letters "SON" to identify their work in the run-out areas.

These sequential numbers can be used to identify when the record was pressed - but please take into that pressing dates are not release dates, as a record pressed in December 1963 might have only been released in 1964. Please always take other sources into as well when dating releases.
