In the late 1950s, Patsy Cline was signed to the USDecca label from Everest Records and had three albums and numerous singles while she was alive and several more albums and singles produced after her death in 1962.
In 1962 British Decca executive Dick Rowe turned down a chance to record a young group from Liverpool called the Beatles in favor of local beat combo Brian Poole and the Tremeloes; in retrospect this was a historic mistake.
The Decca label is currently in use by Universal Music Group worldwide; this is possible because Universal Studios (which officially dropped the MCA name after the Seagram buyout in 1997) acquired PolyGram, British Decca's parent company in 1998, thus consolidating Decca trademark ownership.
