Within years of its founding by former stockbroker Edward Lewis, Decca Records Ltd was the second largest record label in the world, calling itself &#8220;The Supreme Record Company&#8221;. The term &#8220;Decca&#8221; was never determined to signify a specific meaning or name, but some theories cite the opening musical notes of a Beethoven symphony: &#8220;D-E-C-C-A&#8221;. A cameo of Beethoven graced the British Decca label for many years.<\/p>\n<p>Decca bought out the bankrupt UK branch of Brunswick Records in 1932, which added such stars as Bing Crosby and Al Jolson to its roster. Decca also bought out the Melotone and Edison Bell record companies. By 1939, Decca was the only record company in UK aside from EMI.<\/p>\n<p>In 1970s, it was disastrous for Decca with lost of Artists gone and suffering big loss. As a result, the story of this empire was totally changed. PolyGram acquired the remains of Decca within days of Lewis&#8217;s death in January 1980. Today, Decca is a leading label for both classical music and Broadway scores; which is also a part of the Universal Music Group.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"420\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\" align=\"left\" width=\"641\" height=\"21\">\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"6\">\n<tbody>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td bgcolor=\"#cc9900\"><b><span style=\"font-size: small;\">DECCA Labels<\/span><\/b><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#cc9900\"><\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#cc9900\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#f0faff\">\n<td>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/absolutemusik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/decca_wb_groove1_pancake.jpg\" width=\"230\" height=\"230\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/absolutemusik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/decca_pancake.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#f0faff\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/absolutemusik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/decca_bbb.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#d6eafe\">\n<td bgcolor=\"#ffff99\">\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>DECCA Label &#8211; the earlist label, sliver font on black, called &#8220;Wide Band&#8221;<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><!--Detail--><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td colspan=\"2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/absolutemusik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/space.gif\" width=\"1\" height=\"3\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#ffff99\">\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial Narrow; font-size: medium;\">NOTE: near to the edge at around 3mm distance; with a groove (called &#8220;Grooved&#8221;, at the 10 o&#8217;clock position written <b>&#8220;ORIGINAL RECORDING BY&#8221;<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><!--Detail--><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td colspan=\"2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"images\/space.gif\" width=\"1\" height=\"3\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#ffff99\">\n<table border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>For wide band label, the clover is also a special one &#8211; called &#8220;<span style=\"font-family: Arial Narrow;\">BLUE BORDER BACK&#8221;<\/span> (as shown above).\u00a0 They are the earliest Decca stereo record with the highest value.<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><!--Detail--><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td colspan=\"2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/absolutemusik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/space.gif\" width=\"1\" height=\"3\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/absolutemusik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/decca_wb_groove1.jpg\" width=\"230\" height=\"230\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/absolutemusik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/decca_wb_groove2.jpg\" width=\"230\" height=\"230\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#f0faff\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/absolutemusik.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/decca_wb_nongroove.jpg\" width=\"229\" height=\"230\" border=\"0\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\" bgcolor=\"#ffff99\">DECCA Wide Band &#8211; early Label, sliver font on black &#8211; called &#8220;Wide Band&#8221;, with a groove 15mm away from the edge.
