Legend

About

British classical label from the 1970s, mainly issuing stereo recordings from the Supraphon archive. The first set of releases had covers with a white background and were released in 1975. In 1977, Rediffusion Records reissued most of the titles with coloured sleeves, keeping the same catalogue numbers, and added additional titles. Whilst there is no reference to Rediffusion on the 1975 releases, it is assumed that Rediffusion Records either owned Legend from the start, or purchased it shortly after launch. Both Rediffusion and the 'white' Legend releases were usually designed by Stephen Hill Design Services. For the Greek label launched in 1997, use Legend Recordings. For the US label, try Legend (6).
