Record Label
Swaggie Records was a jazz record company and label founded in 1949 by Graeme Bell in Australia. The label's early years were defined by recordings by Australian jazz musicians. In the 1960s, it made licensing deals with American companies for vintage jazz reissues on 7-inch LPs. Similar programs followed in the 1970s (12-inch LPs) though the 1990s (CDs).[1]
