PLANET
RECORDS

Independent American label: Planet Records was created by producer Richard Perry in 1978, and was financed by Elektra / Asylum.  It enjoyed a long and fruitful association with the Pointer Sisters, who took the label into the Charts on both sides of the Atlantic between 1978 and 1985, but it seems to have disappeared in 1986.  In Britain, manufacture and distribution were naturally done through WEA; Planet singles shared a K-12000 numerical series with those of Elektra.  The black label variant would appear to be uncommon.  Perry sold the label to RCA in 1982, which kept the label alive as a subdivision through late 1985, after which the Pointer Sisters, Phillinganes and Medley were signed to RCA proper. The remaining artists on Planet's roster did not have their contracts renewed and the label was ultimately liquidated by the end of the 80's. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
