Morgan (2)

London, UK record label originally set up in 1968 by Monty Babson and Barry Morgan. The pair had already been working together for a while constructing the now legendary Morgan Studios in London in 1967. Early 1968 saw the birth of the Morgan label which featured London pop music as well as middle of the road vocal and instrumental music. Following an initial batch of releases Monty Babson felt the label needed to feature more of the music that was taking hold on the ever changing music scene in London. Late 1968 saw this happen with the birth of the Morgan Blue Town label. Unfortunately Morgan and Morgan Blue Town were to last approximately only 2 years due to two major factors. Firstly most of the acts were studio based bands who would find it hard to promote the records and play live shows due to job commitments and secondly, to be honest, the label did not attract enough attention to warrant their continuance.
