Wild Flower

Wild Flower

Profile:
In the wake of the growing popularity of Reggae music in Jamaica,
Federal Records launched the Wild Flower subsidiary in 1974
under the authority of Paul and Richard Khouri
(sons of Ken Khouri, the founder of Federal).

Wild Flower specialized in releasing hit songs as well as deeper, more rootsier content than that which was expected of the main Federal imprint.
