ABKCO

ABKCO Records is a music label that was formed in 1968 by Allen Klein, a prominent figure in the music industry. It is part of ABKCO Music & Records, Inc., which was founded in 1961 as Allen Klein & Company. Known for managing artists like Bobby Darin and Sam Cooke, Klein later went on to manage The Rolling Stones and The Beatles.

ABKCO Records primarily focuses on re-releasing recordings from its extensive catalog of music rights. In 1968, Allen Klein acquired Cameo-Parkway Records, and ABKCO still owns the full catalogue of this label today. Additionally, ABKCO owns and/or administers the rights to music by renowned artists such as Sam Cooke, The Rolling Stones, The Animals, Herman's Hermits, Marianne Faithfull, and The Kinks.

Although Allen Klein passed away in 2009 from Alzheimer's Disease, ABKCO Records remains under the ownership of the Klein family. Currently managed by his son Jody Klein and distributed through Universal Music Group, the label continues to preserve and share iconic musical works with audiences worldwide.

An exceptional 20-track collection compiling some of the most sought-after soul and R&amp;B records from Philadelphia’s Cameo, Parkway and Fairmount labels, which were popular during the late 1960s / early 1970s Northern Soul club scene. Includes rare tracks that sell in the thousands at record fairs and on eBay when found in their original 45 RPM vinyl single format, some of which were only released as white label promotional copies. Includes rare tracks never-before on compact disc. Features soul and R&amp;B recordings by label mainstays Chubby Checker, The Orlons, Bunny Sigler, Eddie Holman, Lonnie Youngblood and Evie Sands as well as seminal recordings by Yvonne Baker, Christine Cooper, Bobby Paris, Jerry Jackson, Vickie Baines and future R&amp;B hitmaker Frankie Beverly. These recordings feature some of the great Philly Soul and New York production teams of the mid-1960s: Gamble and Huff; Thom Bell; Jerry Ross and Kenny Gamble; Chip Taylor and Al Gorgoni; Sal Trimachi and Ritchie Cordell; John Madara, Dave White and Leon Huff; Weldon McDougal III, Luther Randolph and Johnny Stiles; Stuart Weiner and Mike Lewis plus arrangers Jimmy Wisner, Joe Renzetti and Artie Butler. Features an essay by soul and R&amp;B historian Ady Croasdell. Mastered from the original master sources from ABKCO’s Cameo Parkway archive.
