YAZOO
Records

Yazoo Records has been founded (initially as "Belzona Records") in New York in 1967 by Nick Perls (†) (Sister label: Blue Goose Records). In 1989 the label has been bought by Shanachie Records, who kept the spirit alive by issueing a great part of the Yazoo catalogue on CD.

Following the release of Belzona 1006, the Scottish country dance label "Beltona", operating since the 1930's, lodged an injunction against the name "Belzona" on the grounds that it would confuse distributors customers due to the similarity of names. Nick Perls then changed the label's name to "Yazoo" and re-released Belzona 1001-1006 as Yazoo 1001-1006 with minor changes.
