Quality Records

Quality Records is a Canadian entertainment company which released music albums in Canada on behalf of American record labels, and also released recordings by Canadian artists. The company's activity began in 1950, until its operations were curtailed in 1985. However in the 1990s, the label was revived for new recordings, notably Dan Hill's 1991 album "Dance of Love".

Bobby Gimby's song "Canada" as sung by the Young Canada Singers was released in 1967 as a 45 rpm single by Quality on behalf of Canada's Centennial Commission.

The company won in the category of Best Company for Canadian Content at the Juno Awards in 1970 and 1971.

In the mid-80s, Quality Records replaced K-Tel International as a distributor of various artist compilations in Canada, most notably with the Rock year series (Rock '85, Rock '86, etc ..) and 'This is Music' series
