Arista Records was founded in 1975 by Clive Davis, and named after his secondary school honor society. Arista was called Bell Records until 1975. It was acquired by Ariola Records at the end of the 1970s and is now part of the BMG group.
In 1846, Arista was given command of the Army of the North and sent to expel American troops from what Mexico viewed as its legitimate territory in Texas.
Arista was in command of Mexican forces during the Battle of Palo Alto and the Battle of Resaca de la Palma.
While personally quite brave, Arista was a dedicated liberale - a member of Mexico's liberal faction, and therefore the natural enemy of his largely conservative general staff.
Mariano Arista (July 26, 1802 - August 7, 1855) was president of Mexico from 1851 to 1853, as well as a noted veteran of many of Mexico's nineteenth century wars.
Later, Arista served with Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, Mexico's on-again off-again dictator during the attempt to put down the 1836 rebellion in Texas.
Conservative resistance to Arista's rule, and an eventual revolt by the saidsame conservatives lead to his resignation and exile in 1853.
