A&M Records

A&M Records ([l74446]) was started in 1962 by partners Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss, hence the A&M (Alpert & Moss).
Their first release (following two singles released under the label name Carnival Records (4)) was "The Lonely Bull" by Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass, which sold around 700,000 copies. Sixteen of the first 25 albums were certified gold by the RIAA and helped A&M become a major label and ultimately the world's largest independent record company.

Label code for royalty payments: LC 0485 / LC 00485

One method of identifying pressings is by a single-letter code printed on the center labels:
A = Sonic Recording Products, Inc. (until ca. 1975) or [l344965] (1975-1980s)
B = [l285745]
C = [l264380] (through 1984) or [l473670] (1985–1986)
R = [l406973]
W = [l442751]
X = [l447694]
Y = [l403953]
Z = [l376197]

A&M label history https://www.onamrecords.com/labels/a-m-records/146447/history

European A&M releases started using the PolyGram xxxxxx-x catalogue numbers at the end of 1984. Any release with such a number is after that date.

In Japan, the A&M Records imprint is managed by Universal Sigma and is independent of Interscope.

2007: Universal merges A&M with Octone Records and places Octone's management in charge of combined label as A&M/Octone Records (except in Japan and the UK).
2013: A&M/Octone is absorbed by Interscope.

Despite the label's absorption, its core artist Sting managed to release his music for Interscope Geffen A&M (now Interscope Capitol Labels Group) post-2013 under the A&M name; his recent release under the defunct imprint was 2021's The Bridge.
