Super Records Ltd. is a British independent record label, owned and operated by the English band McFly.
Formation
[edit | edit source]McFly's debut album was released on Island Records in 2004. Room on the 3rd Floor went to number one, making them the youngest UK group to do so since The Beatles.
However, after an issue involving creative differences, McFly parted ways with Island Records and set up their own label, Super Records Ltd. McFly insist the parting from Universal was amicable but that they wanted to be in complete creative control.[1]
Distribution
[edit | edit source]Everything that Super Records Ltd. produced before 2010 was distributed by other major labels in different countries. This was before McFly re-signing with Universal Island Records as part of a 50/50 deal, therefore making Universal worldwide distributors of Super Records releases.
History
[edit | edit source]The first release from Super Records is "One for the Radio", from their album Radio:ACTIVE. A ten-track version of the album was released free with the Mail on Sunday.[2] This was followed by the full, deluxe version of the album featuring a bonus DVD, four extra songs and a 32-page booklet released in the United Kingdom and Ireland on 22 September 2008.
In 2010, McFly announced they had re-signed with Universal as part of a 50/50 partnership deal between Universal and Super Records.[3]
