Coral Records

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coral Record label by Bob Crosby Band

Coral Records was a Decca Records subsidiary based in the United States of America. Various jazz and swing band recordings were issued on Coral in the 1940s. Coral's A&R manager Bob Thiele would marry Coral artist Teresa Brewer. Coral Records is fondly remembered by early rock & roll fans as the home of the incomparable Buddy Holly and The Crickets. Coral was swallowed up by MCA Records in the late 1960s.

In the late 1950's Debbie Reynolds briefly recorded for Coral, with such songs as "Tammy".
