Charly

Charly Records, also known as Charly, is a British label specializing in reissuing old music from iconic catalogs such as Sun Record Company and Chess. Founded by Jean-Luc Young in France in 1974 and later moved to England in 1975, Charly Records has become a renowned name in the industry.

Throughout its history, Charly Records established various associated companies for licensing and rights, including Charly Records International APS based in Denmark and Charly Holdings Inc. registered in the USA. In the 1990s, they collaborated with Movieplay Portuguesa for CD releases, resulting in the presence of SPA rights society on those releases.

Despite being dissolved in 2001, Charly Records underwent new management and became part of the Snapper Music group. Today, it continues to distribute its reissued music through their extensive network.

In a parallel universe it would be Cuban rooted Latin music, not rock that would have dominated late 20th Century American popular culture. Certainly, if the record industry had had its way, the mambo would have been the craze with staying power, not rock and roll. And for a while it could have happened. Mambo and by extension Latin music was truly massive. East (Spanish) Harlem, and the Bronx had the most thriving musical communities, New York melting pots of Latin music and and home to its biggest figures, Bandleaders Harvey Averne and the owner of Fania Records Jerry Masucci. Bobby Pauneto was of Spanish Catalan heritage on his mother’s side and Italian on his father’s, but being brought up in the Bronx, he found himself surrounded by the sounds that forged his career and obsession. He signed to Sidney Siegel’s Seeco label where he recorded 8 tracks in 1965, all of which are compiled here for the first time. The second side of this exclusive playlist includes Cal Tjader’s tribute track ‘Pauneto’s Point’, as well as recordings that formed the influences on Bobby Pauneto through the 50s and 60s that help to contextualise the sounds of Latin New York.
