Sultan Recording Company, headquartered in Detroit, was a short-lived label started c. 1946 by Morton Sultan (1921 - 1983). Its gimmick was "Double-header hits," meaning that two different artists shared each 78 rpm. As far as is known only three jazz artists recorded for Sultan: Red Saunders, Eddie Wiggins and Alphonso "Sonny" Thompson. The only other known Sultan recording is of songs in Hebrew and Yiddish, recorded in Detroit by a synagogue cantor in 1946.
