Kategorie: Parlophone

Parlophone is one of the longest-running names in recorded music, with roots going back to 1896 and origins in Berlin before becoming a major part of British record culture. Its catalogue stretches across decades and styles, from jazz and rock onward, but what stands out is how often it has been home to artists with a strong sense of identity.

That range shows in the names associated with the label, including Blur, Gorillaz, David Bowie, Kylie Minogue, Talk Talk and Richard Hawley. Rather than one fixed sound, Parlophone has a history of backing distinctive records that have found a wide audience without losing their character.
