The name of "K Records"

As I recall, it has something to do with a music review publication and/or record store in Olympia shortly before the label was founded. It could be something like: there was a music store called I Records, a magazine called J Music, and then Calvin Johnson's record label, K Records.

This is a sketchy attempt at recalling the history of the K Records name. It is explained in the film "The Shield Around the K"

I've taken off the sentance about the K Records name being only known by Calvin Johnson.
