E.G. Records Ltd.

Profile:

U.K. record company founded by Editions EG labels were distributed by many different majors in various parts of the world.

In the late '80s Alder and Fenwick ran into severe financial problems thanks to the investments in Lloyds of London. According to Robert Fripp, "Artist royalty streams began to be diverted by the EG Music Group as loans to the EG-related Athol & Co." This prompted extensive legal battles with many of the artists they were involved with, most famously with Fripp. EG Records Ltd was sold to Virgin Records Group Ltd who themselves were bought by the EG Music Publishers Inc. = U.S. branch of EG Music Publishers Ltd.
