Together with his wife, Winnie, he conducted some of the largest classes in the Southern California area when classes were still a novelty. Doc was one of the first callers to travel and call in States outside his own home area.He identified a need for learning material to provide students so they could practice at home and not forget the steps they learned in class every other week. After retiring from his "day" job in business management, he started Windsor Records in his garage, doing all the production, shipping and selling himself. His initial goal was to provide records to people enrolled in his dance classes, but when other dancers and callers expressed interest in the records he expanded his business. Within two years, Windsor Records had outgrown Alumbaugh's garage and had moved to a rather large building in Temple City that housed its own pressing, printing, processing, and warehousing facilities. Soon, his label became one of the foremost square dance record labels. In addition to hiring excellent session musicians, Windsor introduced the idea of releasing a record with calls on one side and just the instrumental version on the other side.He was a member of the original Southern California Callers Pow Wow and was largely responsible for the formation of the Southern California Callers Association. Doc's life was cut short on January 7, 1964 and Winnie followed him a short while later.American record label that was started in 1950 by "Doc" Alumbaugh and specialized in square and round dance recordings. Located in Temple City, California, the first Windsor singles were instrumental hoedowns, and these were followed by singing calls that were popular tunes of the day done square dance style, the calling intertwined with the song lyrics. The label branched out in 1956 into the roller skating disc field. Among other innovations, Windsor was the first to release singles with the called version of an instrumental one side and the call on the other.

Any other defects are stated separately When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise."EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET" is close to noiseless, like a vinyl pressing."VERY QUIET" is an above average quiet record for a given pressing."Quiet" is a record that is a great example with some noise. These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment. Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.
