Vor 50 Jahren gründete ein 22jähriger Entrepreneur eine Plattenfirma. Startkapital: 1000 englische Pfund. "Start-Up" würde man heute dazu sagen. Christopher Blackwell verkaufte Island-Records dreißig Jahre später für 300 Millionen Dollar an PolyGram. In der Zwischenzeit schrieb sein Label Popgeschichte.
