Victor did this with their "Swing Classic" series..in response to Commodore, I 
believe, who were the first to list personnel on their labels.

And you STILL have to sit through them, despite the departing audience (and 
idiotic movie house managers who can't wait to close the curtains).."Airplane" 
had hilarious closing credits and there are a couple of good gag credits in "A

Unless you watch movies on AMC, where they squeeze the credits under the 
closing scene and run them at 10x speed.
