| | Columbia Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Columbia Records is the oldest continually used brand name in recorded sound, dating back to 1888. | | | Columbia began selling disc records and phonographs in addition to the cylinder system in 1901. | | | In July of 1912 Columbia decided to concentrate exclusively on disc records, and stopped recording new cylinder records and manufacturing cylinder phonographs, although they continued pressing and selling cylinder records from their back catalogue for a year or two more. |

| | Certainly the Harmony records have a high quality of sound for acoustic recording, and Harmony was the last label to convert to electrical recording, using acoustically-cut masters into early 1930; both of these would tend to verify the possibility. | | | In 1925, Columbia in the U.S. bought out Compo's New England operations and used Compo masters on their 34000-F French-Canadian series, this being one of the few times that a non-Columbia master was used on Columbia records and lending credence to the assumption that Columbia's Canadian operations did not have recording capability. | | | Columbia's Canadian operations were dropped entirely, as Compo issued ARC material in Canada until 1935-36, and what few Columbia records were sold in Canada were imported U.S. pressings. |

| | PBS - JAZZ A Film By Ken Burns: Jazz Exchange - Race Records |
| | Gradually, the majors began recording their own versions of the whatever hits the independents were lucky enough to have, and by the 50s, race recording labels became superfluous. | | | Record companies were eager to increase their markets, and even developed some non-musical recordings, including recorded sermons, gospel music, spirituals and comedy routines. | | | By the time the recording industry got on its feet again in the mid-30s with the advent of crooners such as Bing Crosby and bandleader Benny Goodman, what had been known as "race" music was firmly ensconced in the center of the popular culture. |

| | TAXI A&R Interview: Jon Pikus, Columbia Records |
| | One of the bands that I recorded in the summer of 1992 was Weezer. | | | I think obviously with the shrinking number of record labels that are all owned by five major conglomerates, the pressure is on to have a better performance sales-wise more on your first record. | | | Maybe we have them signed to a "two records firm" deal so that we can go ahead and make the second album and hope for better results with the second album. |
