London Records was established in 1947 from the split in ownership between the British branch of and that same company’s USA branch. Since British ecca could not use the ecca name in North America, it used the “London” label and logo to release records from the UK owned ecca catalogue for US release only. Note: Many USA releases from 195 to the mid 197’s say “Made in England” on the bottom edge of label; these were pressed at ecca’s second factory in Hampshire, close to Southampton ocks in southern England (the primary factory was at New Malden in Surrey, about 9 miles south of central London) (see also: ). These USA issues have an inverted matrix (master) release # above the USA release # that corresponds to the original “ecca” tapes. British pressings were also shipped to Canada, where London Records of Canada, Ltd. had been established in 1948._x000D_

The label was subsequently established in England in late 1949 for releases from London’s US roster, starting numerically with catalogue number L 5, “Jealous Heart” by Al Morgan. These early releases had catalogue numbers that were numerically the same as the corresponding US releases, but with the L prefix added. There were gaps in this numerical sequence corresponding to British recordings that were released on ecca in Britain._x000D_

Eventually the US roster was wound down and the US label became primarily an outlet for ecca’s British and European recordings (though the Canadian branch maintained a significant domestic roster). In Britain from late 1951, the label became an outlet for recordings licensed from US independent labels via London’s New York office, leading to the introduction of the HL series of singles in early 1954, and eventually the famous and collectable “American Recordings” sub-branding (or “American Series” on LPs). London Canada adopted a similar role, but without any sub-branding._x000D_ _x000D_
This branding may incorporate additional logos for ffrr, Full Frequency Range Recording (not Recordings), American Recordings or British Recordings, none of which are currently acknowledged as distinct labels in the database (except for an early incarnation of ). is only for the Full Frequency Range Recordings (not Recording) dance music imprint established in the mid-198s; see its label profile for details._x000D_

Ames was awarded London as part of a severance package and took it to WEA worldwide. In the US, the imprint was merged with Sire Records Group to form London-Sire Records, which existed until 23. In the UK, The company was renamed to distinguish it from the ecca Label Group. Ames later sold the London Records 9 Ltd to Warner Music._x000D_

Misleading boilerplate information._x000D_
