RKO/Unique Records

RKO Records and Unique Jazz are two record labels. They began in 1955 as Unique Records, a New York City pop music record label. After several small pop hits, such as "Man in the Raincoat" by fourteen-year-old Priscilla Wright, the label was acquired by RKO General in 1957, who had recently acquired the venerable RKO Movie Studio and placed its owner Stanley Borden in charge of its music entertainment division. In 1990, RKO Pictures acquired RKO Records and it is now specializes in releasing soundtracks.
