Triumph Records was a UK record label set up in January 1960 by Joe Meek and William Barrington-Coupe. The label existed for less than a year and although most of the artistes are unknown, many of the records now sell for high prices in the record collecting world because of Joe Meek's involvement. Even the original paper sleeves command some value. The label had one hit, Angela Jones by Michael Cox reaching number 7, but distribution was badly organised and Joe Meek pulled out in June 1960. The label folded soon afterwards after a bankruptcy petition was filed on behalf of a leading musical arranger who hadn't been paid. A few 45 r.p.m. records were released on Triumph that had no involvement from Meek. Many of Meek's later 1960-1961 Triumph recordings by artists including John Leyton, the Flee-Rekkers and Iain Gregory were recorded for Triumph release but were issued on labels such as Top Rank and Pye after the label's collapse. In the music industry, a record label is a brand and a trademark associated with the marketing of music recordings and music videos. ...
