Cameo

Also appears as "Cameo Records" or over the "P" of Parkway.
Label founded 1956 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania by Bernie Lowe and Kal Mann. In 1958 they started a subsidiary called Parkway Records; in 1964, the budget LP subsidiary Wyncote was launched with some 200 titles eventually released. By 1967, both labels were losing lots of money and were merged into the single "Cameo Parkway" label (the last major hits were in 1964; with a few exceptions, the company was just getting by on its past reputation). After a brief period being distributed by MGM Records, the company went bankrupt and was sold to Allen B. Klein who turned the Cameo-Parkway operation into ABKCO Records in 1968.
