Decca Records

Decca Records is a British record label. It was founded in 1929 by Edward Lewis.

History

Its American label was established in late 1934; subsequently the link with the British company was broken for several decades. They are known for its development of recording methods (in the UK) and for the development of original cast albums (in the US).
