Here are some corrections to the Ruby Records article:
1. Ruby released a total of seven albums:
JRR 101 The Flesh Eaters: A Minute to Pray, A Second to Die
JRR 102 The Gun Club: Fire of Love
JRR 103 Blurt: In Berlin
JRR 804 The Misfits: Walk Among Us
JRR 805 The Flesh Eaters: Forever Came Today
JRR 806 Lydia Lunch: 13.13
JRR 807 The Dream Syndicate: The Days of Wine and Roses

Ruby released apparently no singles.
2. Ruby was not initially distributed by Warner Bros. It went through the same independent distributors that handled its corporate parent, Slash. When Warners bought Slash, they took over distribution of Ruby's three most popular albums ("Fire of Love", "The Misfits Walk Among Us", "The Days of Wine and Roses") and deleted the others. The WB-distributed version of "Fire of Love" has an altered cover design, but the CD reissues on Slash and Rhino use the original artwork.

Ruby Records Today
[edit]The information moved here is about a different record label with the same name. I am saving the text here. I suggest that a separate page be created for this different company. Possibly a disambiguation page will be needed.Ee60640 09:50, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Now, Ruby Records is an independent label located in Columbus, Ohio. It was created in 2000 by Josh Posten (Chronic Taper, Mr. POSTman). In 2004, Robert Coulter (Fade) and Robert Humphrey (Bobby) were both made presidents. At first it was just a production company, Chronic Taper Productions (CTP), producing and selling rap/r&b insturmentals to local rap/r&b singers. Then, in 2005, the label signed four local rap artists: Jeff (Dudt), Jamal Jones (J. Jones, Mal) and Terence Robinson (T$). The name, Chronic Taper, came from an ironic source. The history teacher at FHMEC, Mr. Riley, suggested it to Josh when he had his class, saying that when he was a kid he was a 'Chronic Taper'. Productions, was thus for added to the end to create, CTP. The further name, Ruby Records, originated from hunger. Josh Posten was driving to his house from downtown, when he was stopped at a red light. Filled with hunger he looked over, and saw the resturaunt, 'Ruby Tuesday's'. Thus, it clicked and Ruby Records was created.
