Many of the early Joe Von Battle productions in Detroit were done in Battle’s Record Shop at 3530 Hastings Street. Battle was responsible for re-selling several of the very first Elmer Barbee pseudonym recordings to different record companies. Barbee had quit as Hooker’s manager by 1951. Battle, though, was some kind of ”agent” for Hooker up until the 1960s.
