| U.S.A.: In 1961, Larry Uttal purchased Bell, Amy and Mala labels, and folded his Madison Records. Early on, Uttal concentrated on the Amy and Mala labels, and rendered Bell dormant. The Bell label was revived in 1964. When Uttal left the company in 1974, Clive Davis, music consultant to Columbia Pictures, took over. Uttal then founded Private Stock Records. By late 1974, Davis merged the Columbia Pictures labels (Colpix, Colgems and Bell) into a new entity named Arista. | ||
