Verve Records
Verve Records is an American record company operating under the newly-founded Verve Label Group distributed by Interscope Geffen A&M Records.[1] It was founded in 1956 by Norman Granz. It absorbed the catalogues of his earlier labels, Clef Records (founded in 1946) and Norgran Records (founded in 1953), and material previously licensed to Mercury Records. Granz sold Verve to MGM in 1961. In the 1970s, Verve became part of the PolyGram, incorporating the Mercury/EmArcy jazz catalog, which Philips, part owners of PolyGram, had earlier acquired. Verve Records became the Verve Music Group after PolyGram was merged with Seagram's Universal Music Group in 1998. When Universal and Polygram merged in 1998, Verve's holdings were merged with Universal's GRP Recording Company to become Verve Music Group.
