Stateside Records:

Stateside ($tateside) Records is a British record label which initially released licenced American recordings and is now a reissue label.

It was formed in 1962 by EMI as a replacement for the Top Rank label (originally the Rank Organisation's label), which had folded. EMI hired former Top Rank label head Fred Oxon to run it and compete with Decca Records' London "American Recordings" label. While Top Rank's British acts (such as John Leyton) were assigned to EMI's Columbia and HMV labels, Stateside continued to issue records from its American suppliers, including Amy, Bell, 20th Century Fox, Scepter, Vee-Jay and A&M, and acquired Tamla-Motown-Gordy from Oriole Records. Its first hit was "Palisades Park" by Freddy Cannon, which was licenced from Swan Records. It was through EMI's relationship with Vee-Jay and Swan that pre-1964 recordings by The Beatles were released by those labels in the USA when EMI's American subsidiary Capitol turned them down.

Stateside's black label design, with a large '45' for singles and a coloured logo for albums, was the model for the new-look Columbia, Parlophone and HMV labels which were introduced the following year.

In the late 1960s, when EMI set up long term licence contracts with US labels like Motown, MCA and Asylum, it no longer needed Stateside, and the label retired quietly in 1973 (along with the EMI Columbia and HMV POP labels) in favour of the new EMI label.

Stateside has retrospectively attracted interest from northern soul fans, mainly for its role in passing on American Motown recordings to the UK market. Stateside issued 45 of these prior to the establishment of the UK Tamla Motown label, including the number 1 "Baby Love" in 1964.
In the 1980s, the Stateside label was revived as a catalogue reissue label specialising in American recordings from Capitol Records and other labels EMI acquired over the years.

Bell:

The British branch was established in 1967.[11] Previous British issues of Bell recordings were on EMI's Stateside Records. Bell/Amy/Mala's association with EMI dates back to 1964.[12] Bell Records in London was headed by Dick Leahy and distributed by EMI (In other foreign territories, Polydor handled distribution which later picked up British distribution.). Artists signed to them included the Bay City Rollers, Gary Glitter, Showaddywaddy, The Glitter Band, and US acts Reparata and the Delrons and The Partridge Family with David Cassidy. Other artists on the label included Barry Blue, Barry Manilow, Terry Jacks, Hello, The Piglets, The Pearls and Harley Quinne, The Drifters and the UK releases of The Box Tops.

Bell UK initially kept its identity when Bell US was reorganized into Arista in 1974,[13] but a year later, although releases continued on the UK Bell label until 1976, the UK label adopted the Arista name in 1975.[14] Showaddywaddy released the last Bell single, "Under the Moon of Love", which reached No.1 in December 1976 [15] before Arista UK briefly revived the label in 1981.[16] The Bell logo has made occasional appearances on the jackets and labels of Arista UK releases.
