Decca Records is a British record label established in 1929 by Edward Lewis. The tag can be used to connect to artists and their recordings made for this label.
Its U.S. label was established in late 1934; however, due to World War II, the link with the British company was broken for several decades. Decca Records was noted for its development of recording methods in the United Kingdom and for the development of original cast albums in the United States. Both wings are now part of the Universal Music Group which is owned by Vivendi, a media conglomerate headquartered in France. The American Decca label was the foundation label which evolved into UMG.
