The origin of the label's name is a reversal of the popular aphorism An aphorism (from Greek ἀφορισμός: ''aphorismos'', denoting 'delimitation', 'distinction', and 'definition') is a concise, terse, laconic, or memorable expression of a general truth or principle. Aphorisms are often handed down by ..., "A quick nickel is better than a slow dime." Within a short time, Amanda MacKaye became less involved and John Wall, who was playing in Kerosene 454 at the time, started running the label with Juan. A number of the label’s releases were “split” releases with another D.C.-centr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
