Decca Classics (“DECCA” in white uppercase on a blue-over-red rectangular block; until 1999, for use outside of North America only)

~ Label

Annotation

The Decca Classics logo includes the DECCA name in white uppercase superimposed on a blue-over-red rectangular background (see logo), and was used in all countries except the US; its sister imprint that was used instead in the US until 1999 was London, as the Decca Record Company Ltd. wasn't allowed to use the "Decca" name in the country up till then, when the MCA and PolyGram families eventually merged and Universal Music Group was born.
