Comus is a UK progressive/psychedelic folk rock band hailing from Bromley, Kent. Founded in the late 1960s and disbanded in 1974, they made a triumphant return to the music scene in 2008. Led by band leader Roger Wootton, Comus has left an indelible mark on the genre with their unique sound and captivating performances.

The name "Comus" was registered by Roger Wootton himself, who also used it as an alias for cover art credits on RCA releases. With influences ranging from Amon Düül II to Soft Machine, Comus has carved out their own distinct space within the music industry.

If you enjoy the sounds of artists like Spirogyra, Gong, or Robert Wyatt, then Comus is sure to captivate your musical senses. Their experimental approach combined with elements of folk rock will transport you to another realm. Don't miss out on experiencing the magic of Comus!

BMG Rights Management, formerly known as Bertelsmann Music Group, is a global music conglomerate with a rich history in the industry. Originally formed in 1985 as a joint venture between Bertelsmann AG and RCA, BMG has since evolved into a powerhouse of music production and distribution.

In 1986, Bertelsmann acquired full ownership of RCA and Arista Records through the purchase of their joint venture's stock from General Electric. The following year, these labels were merged under the umbrella of Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG), solidifying its position as a major player in the music world.

In 2004, BMG joined forces with Sony Music to create Sony BMG Music Entertainment. However, in 2008, Bertelsmann sold its stake in the company, leading to the formation of BMG Rights Management. Today, BMG continues to thrive as a leading record label and distributor worldwide.
