Decca notably, but HMV and Columbia, both EMI labels, also turned them down.

The Beatles were eventually signed up with Parlophone, a small label of EMI that specialised in novelty acts, but wanted to branch out into Pop Music.

Decca Records, and Dick Rowe.

Columbia Records and Apple Records.

The Beatles were NEVER on Columbia records. In the US, the Beatles were released on Capitol Records, which was owned by their British label, EMI/Parlophone. Initially, before Capitol Records picked up its option to release the Beatles' tunes in the US, the Beatles were released on Vee-Jay and Swan Records. Atco Records released "Ain't She Sweet" as a single in America.

Not a studio (who recorded whatever they were paid to do) but every major record label in England. They finally signed with Parlophone, a small EMI label.

Most famously Decca, but in fact the tape produced in the Decca audition was played to all the major record companies, and they all rejected it.

How do you contact record labels?

A record label will contact you if you are good enough. Back in the day you would be able to record a demo and send it to labels. Now however, everyone can record a demo on their computer. Labels these days are constantly being sent really bad demos and thus, they don't even listen to them. Make your own albums, and play your own shows. If you are successful the labels will hear about it and come find you. If you go out and try to contact them all the time, you will be turned down.

If you were convicted of a crime but turned your life around how do you get the conviction off your record?
