Excellent Cameo/Parkway Web Site I Just Discovered

[woodward]

I just discovered an excellent web site totally by accident. The site covers the Cameo and Parkway [[C/P) Record labels from Philadelphia. It includes numerous pictures, a listing of C/P albums and 45s in numerical order; pictures of C/P album covers and picture sleeves; and links to related web sites.

The web site is www.vinylphilly.squarepins.org

Check it out for a lot of valuable information on these great labels.

Thanks for posting this. I was always a fan of the Cameo-Parkway label.

No fan of this great label should be without at least this boxed set:

Very nice site.

Can someone explain to me how Sounds Orchestral ended up on Parkway?

[soulster]

Distribution deal?

Sounds Orchestral was a UK Pye recording that got licensed to C/P...the same thing applies to the early Kinks singles and the Ivy League on Cameo. There may be other items like this, who knows?

Best,

Mark
