Lynsey de Paul signed with the label in 1972 and her run of hit singles on MAM started with "Sugar Me". She also released her debut album, Surprise (Lynsey de Paul album), on MAM in 1973, and a best of compilation album, The World of Lynsey de Paul (also known as Lynsey Sings) in 1974. Engelbert Humperdinck was also a major recording artist with MAM; Gordon Mills was Engelbert Humperdinck's manager. While not scoring any hits, the label also released singles by Frank Ifield as well as Johnny Nash, Leapy Lee and Tina Charles. Distribution of MAM records switched to EMI in the mid 1970s. The company was one of the most successful record companies in the United Kingdom throughout the early 1970s. It diversified into slot machines and airlines but, by the end of the 1970s, it was losing ground to American companies such as RCA Records. MAM was sold in the 1980s to Chrysalis Records. Following the sale of Chrysalis to EMI Records in 1991, many recordings previously owned by MAM were reissued by EMI. After the breakup of EMI in 2013, Chrysalis was sold to BMG Rights Management. Now MAM's catalogue belongs to BMG, and is distributed by Warner Music's ADA. (en) MAMレコード (MAM Records) は、マネジメント会社であるマネジメント・エージェンシー&ミュージック・リミテッド (Management Agency & Music Ltd., MAM) が1970年に立ち上げたレコード・レーベル。とトム・ジョーンズが創業し、デッカ・レコードが流通を担った。MAMから最初にリリースされたシングルは、1970年のデイヴ・エドモンズのシングル「アイ・ヒア・ユー・ノッキング (I Hear You Knocking)」であった。同年の遅い時期にはギルバート・オサリヴァンが「 (Nothing Rhymed)」を皮切りに MAM での一連のヒット作を出し始め、1971年にはヒット作となったアルバム『 (Himself)』が MAM から出た。さらにオサリヴァンのアルバム『 (Back to Front)』、『(I'm a Writer, Not a Fighter)』、『 (A Stranger In My Own Back Yard)』が次々にヒットした。 1972年には、リンジー・ディ・ポールがこのレーベルと契約し、「 (Sugar Me)」に始まる一連のヒット・シングルを出し始めた。彼女のデビュー・アルバム『 (Surprise)』も1973年に MAM からリリースされ、1974年にはベスト・アルバムとして制作されたコンピレーション・アルバム『The World of Lynsey de Paul(別名:Lynsey Sings)』も出た。エンゲルベルト・フンパーディンクも MAM に録音を残した重要なアーティストであったが、これはゴードン・ミルズがフンパーディンクのマネージャーだったためである。ヒットには至らなかったが、もこのレーベルから複数のシングルを出しており、他にも、、らのシングルもリリースされた。1970年代半ばには、MAMレコードの流通は EMI に切り替えられた。 同社は、1970年代前半において、イギリスで最も成功したレコード会社のひとつであった。事業は多角化され、一時はスロットマシンから航空事業まで広がったが、1970年代末にはRCAビクターなどのアメリカ合衆国の企業に市場を奪われていた。 1980年代に入り、同社はクリサリス・レコードに売却された。1991年にクリサリスが EMI に売却されたため、かつて MAM が権利を保有していた録音の多くは、EMI から再発売されるようになっている。 (ja)
