Biography

Ed Chalpin (January 16, 1935 – October 1, 2019 ) was a record executive and producer. He is most remembered for his association with Curtis Knight and the Squires which caused problems for Jimi Hendrix throughout his career. Chalpin is responsible for the recordings from that period, some of which appear on You Can't Use My Name: The RSVP/PPX Sessions. Originally from New York City, Chalpin began his career in the music business in 1956. He was referred to by Billboard as a pioneer producer of cover records. Chalpin was a producer of cover versions of Top 40 hits, released under the "Twin Hits" label. Today these would be regarded as Exploito releases. Up to 1966, a good deal of the records that his PPX Enterprises produced were cover versions. Around 25% of his cover recordings were overseas hits.
