Ruby Records was a subsidiary of Slash Records, started in 1981. Ruby was distributed by Warner Brothers Records until Slash was purchased in 1982, when Ruby stopped operating.

Ruby was essentially a personal project (or vanity label) run by The Flesheaters singer Chris D. He was listed as producer of The Misfits' Walk Among Us LP on its original release, although this was amended for the CD reissue. Chris D. also produced The Dream Syndicate's Days Of Wine And Roses & The Gun Club's Fire Of Love LPs. These, along with the Flesheaters' A Minute To Pray, A Second To Die are the only albums, indeed the only music, ever issued by Ruby.

Here are some corrections to the Ruby Records article: The following is a partial list of record labels, both past and present. ...


1. Ruby released a total of seven albums:

JRR 102 The Gun Club: Fire of Love


JRR 103 Blurt: In Berlin


JRR 804 The Misfits: Walk Among Us

Ruby released no singles that I (Mark Lungo) am aware of.


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 programming language - encyclopedia article about Ruby programming language. (3005 words)
Ruby is said to follow the principle of least surprise (POLS), meaning that the language typically behaves intuitively or as the programmer assumes it should.
Ruby has been described as a multi-paradigm programming language: it allows you to program procedurally (defining functions/variables outside classes makes them part of the root, 'self' Object), with object orientation (everything is an object) or functionally (it has anonymous functions, closures, and continuations; statements all have values, and functions return the last evaluation).
Ruby is distributed disjointedly under the free and open source licenses GPL and Ruby License [3].
