AEGIS (2)

Aegis Records was founded by Ron Alexenburg and Cy Leslie in 1988 and closed in 1990. In an interview in 1989, he stated the following: "Actually Cy came up with the name for the label. He said, 'Aegis, under the aegis. Do you know what it means?' I said, 'Sure, guidance, protection.' I also knew it was the missile that blew up the Iranian plane." The parent company was CBS.
