Vogue Records


Disques Vogue is a French record label, founded in 1947 in Villetaneuse by Léon Cabat and Charles Delaunay, writer, jazz expert and co-founder of Hot Club de France. The record company originally aimed at jazz music, featuring albums from, among others, Sidney Bechet, Django Reinhardt, Dizzy Gillespie, Lionel Hampton and Erroll Garner. From the end of the 1950s, the label also released pop songs from both French-speaking artists and Johnny Hallyday, Jacques Dutronc and Françoise Hardy, as well as, through collaboration with British Pye Records English musicians, such as Petula Clark and the Kinks. In Germany, lp's and singles were released by the "daughter" Deutsche Vogue, in Belgium by Vogue Belgique. The company produced major sales successes, including a few number one hits for Petula Clark, but, for example, hits for ABBA (in Belgium). The company's catalog is now owned by Sony BMG.
