Independent UK record label.
Label Code: LC 0460 / LC 00460
Established late 1966 by New Action Ltd. offices in Belgravia, London.
The label was originally the non-North American home of Golden Earring.
In the early 1970s, Track declined due to mismanagement, and the loss of rights to the Hendrix catalogue. Then on May 22, 1974, The Who parted with Lambert and Stamp as their managers. The Who left Track and signed with Polydor. Lambert and Stamp relocated to New York in 1976, to focus on producing The Heartbreakers (2). But by early 1978, the company went into liquidation, owing £70,000. Track ceased trading in 1978. Lambert died in 1981.
In 1999, Stamp ed the rights to the name to Big Country), who relaunched the label and uses the "Track Record" name and logo. This new company does not hold the rights to the back catalogue.
