GNP Crescendo

Also appears as "GNP Crescendo Records". US label, distributor launched circa 1962 (45s: from GNP 182), previously known as Gene Norman Presents from 1954 to 1956 and as GNP from 1956 to 1962. Appears with a red background, bold white letters on the top perimeter. Later the design changed to a horizontal wording on top. In 1963 Norman sold his night club to concentrate on the label and the repertoire changed from just jazz to a wide range of popular music. It is specialised in soundtracks from science fiction films and television series, but also remarkable for the release of The Seeds in the 60s.
