Encyclopedia > Dolton Records

Dolton Records was a record label based in Seattle which was originally Dolphin Records. It was owned by Bob Reisdorf. Success for the label came early with "Come Softly To Me" by The Fleetwoods. Reisdorf was then informed that there was another Dolphin Records so he changed the label to Dolton. The Dolton label retained the fish symbols on the logo associated with the Dolphin name. Other Dolton artists included The Ventures and Vic Dana. It was acquired in 1963 by Avnet and merged with its Liberty Records. Liberty had distributed Dolton releases when "Come Softly To Me" became a hit. The Fleetwoods were a singing trio from Olympia, Washington, USA.
