Dot Records
| Описание: | American label founded around 1950 by [a=Randy Wood] & Gene Nobles in Gallatin, Tennesee. Dot Records was sold to Paramount Pictures in 1957 (and adopted a version of the Paramount logo which it used on 45 RPM single sleeves and album covers; the company had relocated to Hollywood by 1956). Gulf+Western Industries bought Paramount in 1968, placed its operation under its Famous Music publishing unit and changed the Dot label design. The G+W-era Paramount logo started appearing on Dot albums about at record number DLP-25852. The back catalog to date was deleted once the Famous Music administration began. Dot reissues subsequently appeared on the [b]Paramount Records[/b] and [b]Famous[/b] Records labels. Gulf+Western sold its record operation to ABC in late 1973 which absorbed the catalog and labels into ABC Dunhill Records. Early in 1974, Dot Records was renamed [b][l=ABC Dot][/b] and became the country music unit of [b]ABC Records[/b]. The new DOSD-2001 series lasted until the end of 1977 when Dot was discontinued in favor of the parent ABC label. In 1979, ABC's catalog, including Dot, was sold to [b]MCA[/b] which itself merged in 1998 with [b]PolyGram[/b] and ultimately became [b]Universal Music Group[/b]. Billed itself in the 1950s and 1960s as having "[i]The Nation's Best Selling Records[/i]". Though its biggest stars included [a=Pat Boone] and bandleaders [a=Billy Vaughn] and [a=Lawrence Welk] (who left the label with his back catalog after the 1968 sale of the company), a number of significant early rock and roll, surf (The [a=Surfaris]) and doo-wop singles were released on Dot, often under license from outside producers. Distributed [a=Bob Crewe]'s [b]DynoVoice[/b] Records for a brief time in 1968-69. Also pressed and distributed [a=Jeff Barry]'s Steed Records from 1968 to 1971. Subsidiary labels include Crystalette ([a=Dodie Stevens]), Hamilton and Acta (The [a=American Breed]).
