Infinity
Records was a subsidiary of MCA Records
established in New York City in 1977. The label was conceived by MCA president
Sidney Sheinberg as a way for the Los Angeles-based entertainment conglomerate
to improve its presence on the east coast. MCA pulled the plug on Infinity
in December 1979. The collapse of the label also coincided with rising
costs of manufacturing for vinyl LPs and a huge sales slump for the industry.
Infinity has since become known as one of the most expensive failures in
the history of the record business.
