Reo was a masterpiece compared to Quality's label (and crappy vinyl). The Compo
Company did the same thing, as did London, but eventually all began issuing
indy labels with their proper designs once they'd established themselves as
solid catalog items. This held well into the sixties..Herb Alpert's first six
albums (at least!) were on Quality, not A&M.
