Record label owned by
Ray Charles acquired as part of his contractual agreement with
ABC Records, releasing music and productions by Ray Charles and his collaborators. In 1973, Charles left ABC but kept the rights to all of his recordings. Wanting to diversify his musical directions beyond soul, blues, and jazz, he formed a new label by essentially changing the name of Tangerine Records to Crossover.
Other artists released on Tangerine Records include
Jimmy Scott,
Al Grey, Percy Mayfield, The Raelettes and an Ike & Tina Turner collaboration.
