About
Multinational label.

RCA is a record label that is used worldwide and currently owned by Sony Music Entertainment .
The name RCA refers to the Radio Corporation of America (RCA), a US electronic and communications company formed in 1919. In 1929, RCA acquired the Victor Talking Machine Co. The Victor Company had released records on the Victor and Victrola labels. The record division became known as RCA Victor until late 1968, when it became RCA Records.
In 1985, RCA Records became part of RCA/Ariola International ; At the end of that year, General Electric purchased the RCA Corporation ; In 1986, GE sold the remainder of RCA Records to Bertelsmann (Ariola's owner) and formed the Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG).
Since then, RCA Records has switched owners twice. First it became a label of Sony BMG Music Entertainment and currently is owned by Sony Music Entertainment.
On September 26, 2011, Sony Music Entertainment reorganized the RCA Records group into its own label banner. Therefore, the labels under that group, Jive , Arista , LaFace and J Records , were all merged into RCA, bringing all of its artists from these aforementioned four imprints to the RCA family. Furthermore, reissues from Jive, Arista, J and LaFace by Sony will be handled by RCA as well.
Note: Though Sony Music Entertainment owns the RCA label, it doesn't own the RCA trademarks. The RCA trademarks are owned by French company Technicolor S.A. and licensed to Sony Music Entertainment by RCA Trademark Management S.A.
Also has a series of Spanish releases called [L=Serie Discoteca (2)].
For 70's-80's French releases with a 'RCA éditeur' mention, please add RCA as Record Company and a note 'RCA éditeur'.
