| | | | Creator: | Boddie Recording Company | | | | Dates: | 1955-1977 | | | | Abstract: | The Boddie Recording Company (f. 1950s) was the first recording studio in Cleveland, Ohio, owned by African-Americans. In order to hold down costs, Thomas Boddie created all his recording equipment by hand, rather than purchasing pre-made machines. He owned the company with his wife, Louise Boddie. Their clientele included musicians of various styles, including gospel, country, bluegrass, rock, soul, and rhythm and blues, earning the studio the nickname of "Little Nashville". Records were made for national distribution as well as for independent groups and artists who only wished to have their music recorded for personal use or local distribution, such as recordings of sermons for church groups, with Boddie creating small, independent record labels for the purpose. The collection consists of 28 negatives and 36 black and white photographs of artists and the recording studio. | | | | Call #: | PG 563 | | | | Extent: | 0.20 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | Boddie, Thomas, d. 2006 -- Photographs. | Boddie, Louise -- Photographs. | Games, Allen -- Photographs. | Mayes, Patricia -- Photographs. | Hawkins, Bill. -- Photographs. | North, Penny -- Photographs. | Smitty Al -- Photographs. | Boddie Recording Co.

It was originally called the Church of Christ in Euclid, and was comprised of both Presbyterian and Congregationalist settlers from the New England area. The first spiritual leader was Reverend William Wick. The first services were held in the homes of parishioners, and a permanent home for the church, known as the Log Church, was built in 1810. In 1811, the church formally entered the Hartford, Connecticut Presbytery and was then an officially recognized Presbyterian church. The collection consists of approximately 125 color and black and white photographs and slides depicting individual portraits, group portraits, church buildings, and church events. | | | | Call #: | PG 595 | | | | Extent: | 1.00 linear feet (3 containers) | | | | Subjects: | African Americans -- Ohio -- East Cleveland -- Photographs | Church buildings -- Ohio -- East Cleveland -- Photographs | East Cleveland (Ohio) -- Photographs | First Presbyterian Church (East Cleveland, Ohio) -- Photograph collections | First Presbyterian Church (East Cleveland, Ohio) | Presbyterian Church -- Missions -- Photographs | Presbyterian Church -- Ohio -- East Cleveland -- Photographs | Women in church work -- Ohio -- East Cleveland -- Photographs
