- De-Lite_Records abstract "De-Lite Records whose formal name was De-Lite Recorded Sound Corporation was a record label specializing in R&B music. It was founded in 1969 by music producer Gene Redd [1] and one of the label's first signings was Kool and the Gang whose self-titled instrumental was their first big R&B hit in that year. Kool and the Gang was the most successful act for the label, scoring many R&B hits for the label.In the 70s, Pickwick International took over distribution of the label, and Kool and The Gang's massive pop crossover success began in 1973 with their first Top 40 crossover hit, "Funky Stuff."Disco pioneers, Crown Heights Affair, were signed to the label in 1975 and promptly released "Dreaming a Dream," reaching #5 on Billboard's R&B Singles chart. They followed with the Top 20 hits, "Every Beat of My Heart," "Foxy Lady", and "Dancin'." The album "Dreaming a Dream" was followed by "Do It Your Way" (1976), "Dream World" (1978), "Dance Lady Dance" (1979), and "Sure Shot" (1980).After PolyGram later purchased Pickwick in 1977, it took over distribution of the label which maintained the De-Lite imprint for Kool And The Gang's releases. In 1985, De-Lite was absorbed into PolyGram sublabel Mercury Records, Kool and the Gang transferred to. In 1998, Polygram merged with Universal Music Group; their subsidiary Island Def Jam Music Group now manages the De-Lite catalogue.".
