Roger Ames who ran London in an independent manner under Polygram took it
WMG (WEA) when he left for Warners. It was there for quite a while, at
least as far as pop catalogue went (Fine Young Cannibals, Bananarama et
al). But I do see it went back to Universal in 2010, but it looks like some
stuff stayed at WEA. So we are both partially right.

I thought that all the Goldner labels like Roulette went to Rhino and then
to WEA.

Why do I feel there will soon be just one record label
