------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The History of Swan Records:
Swan records was founded in 1957 in Philadelphia Pa., and remained in business for 10 years. Swan Records is probably best known for releasing The Beatles' "She Loves You" in the United States. The label was co-owned by Bernie Binnick and Tony Mammarella, and featured production talents such as Frank Slay and Bob Crewe, along with Walter Gates, but it was Binnick who secured the American rights to this song during a summer vacation in England. Oddly enough, in 1964 Swan also released the German language version "Sie Liebt Dich" in the United States, which failed to make a major impact.
Swan Records original address was 1405 Locust St in Philadelphia in 1960. Legendary icon Dick Clark helped them with promotions, with many of their artists, much before Beatlemania, but then the Payola scandal hit and Clarks involvement with the company had to be terminated. In 1962 Swan moved to 1703 Jackson Street. By 1963 they moved to their last offices, located at the northwest corner of 8th and Fitzwater Streets, in Philadelphia. Swan closed its doors in 1967. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shipping is Lightning-Fast via USPS 2/3 Day Priority Mail, professionally packed for guaranteed safe arrival ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
