I don't know for certain, but most likely hundreds. Some labels: Kimley, Crest, Tempe, Cal-Gold, Baronet, Invicta, Gambit, Encore, Gold-Arrow, Indigo, Hank, Petal, Amazon, Milestone etc. RobbK on here will probably know a lot more about this.
June 21, 201411 yr Yes, there were hundreds. Many of them were also distributed by ARDCO (Allied Record Distributing Co.). Both were operated out of L.A. I'm not with my records now to list many of them. I think both of those distributors of small, independent labels were connected by ownership, or, at least in some way.
June 21, 201411 yr Wow, very interesting. I would like to put the company sleeves to the records and realized that lots have distributors i dont know about. IS there a guide for this anywhere or a good website?
June 21, 201411 yr Rob, were these labels distributed by Circa from Day 1 or were they picked up for distribution later on?
June 22, 201411 yr Some were picked up from their start of operation, but most were distributed only for a portion of their existences (as you can tell from the differences in their label designs when distributed by CIRCA and when not (not just having the insignia added, but different colours and/or font and label design, such as with Baronet, Theoda, etc.
