Constellation (2)

Profile

Sub-label of [l8270], for the record company please use [l=Constellation Records]. In the early 1980's, [a=Dick Griffey] created a sub-label for [l=Solar], called Constellation in order to release more contemporary acts, but as time passed by it seems he abandoned that thought and moved two of his top female acts ([a=Carrie Lucas] and [a=Klymaxx]) to Constellation (with which he shifted distribution from Elektra to [l=MCA Records]), together with the multi-ethnical group [a=Collage (3)]. In 1986 Griffey decided to fold Constellation, and its acts either moved on to MCA Records directly, moved on to other labels, or were disbanded. The post-1984 Constellation material (particularly the Klymaxx material) is owned by [l=Universal Music Group].
