History

Among the labels whose original releases are reissued by Charly are Vee-Jay, Sun, Immediate, BYG, Tomato, and Fania. Charly Records was founded in France in 1974 by Jean-Luc Young, who had been a promoter of teen concerts, but moved to the UK in 1975. Charly was originally known mainly for American-originated jazz and other modern oddities such as the Bollock Brothers, but it is now mainly known as an album-oriented "retro" label. Their most obvious rivals are Rhino and See for Miles (a label which Charly distributed in the 1980s).

In Europe the Charly label is distributed by Snapper Records, whilst their licensing is through LicenseMusic.com.
