At least Elvis half-ass tried to right some of his wrongs... Neil Diamond may be the only major artist to take the hippie/antiestablishment sensitive bard aesthetic and combine it with Las Vegas schlockmeister. I associate him with MCA. I guess Capitol is part of Universal now, so it's one big happy cluster of a family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elton John was on Uni too, as was my 45 of "The Israelites" by Desmond Dekker. Edited February 11, 2022 by Teasing the Korean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say Blue Note is quasi functioning or seems to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
