Defunct American division of
Play It Again Sam [PIAS] that was run in partnership with
Wax Trax! Records during the late 1980s.
Play It Again Sam Records USA releases with a catalog number starting with
BIUS are from the period of the partnership with Wax Trax! Records.
Play It Again Sam Records USA releases that were released in the US via Caroline Records after the Wax Trax! deal was terminated had the same
BIAS catalog numbers as the European version.
This label should not be confused with
PIAS America, the label's current American division. Releases with a
PIASA catalog number should go there.
