Riviera (3)

French label (1948-1977) founded by Nicole Barclay.

Three different periods:
• 1948-1956 Label dedicated to dance orchestras in parallel with the labels Mercury (American label, French song and American pop) also managed by Barclay.
• 1963-1977 Riviera (1964-1977) takes over from 707 label (1963-1964).
• 1978-1984 Daniel Balavoine.

The different periods of the catalog (as well as the Blue Jazz and the French part of Mercury catalogs) have been largely reissued under the Barclay label.
