	Patti Page - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		She is unusual in that she came to traditional pop from country music, and some of her recordings are somewhat country flavored.
		Records vary as to whether Clara Ann Fowler was born in Claremore or Muskogee, Oklahoma.
		In 1974 and 1975 she had a pair of records for Avco Records, then, after a hiatus of a few years, started in 1981 to record for Plantation Records, her last label.

		The names of all associated persons and managers of Kelly's organization who traded the AVCO system should be among the records, data, and memoranda of the type prepared or received in connection with a commodity pool.
		It is clear from the record that Kelly did not provide the records requested by the Division until the Commission had filed a complaint charging him with violative conduct.
		On this record, we believe that a cease and desist order is appropriate to assure that Kelly will not repeat his prior behavior.

		Donnie Elbert was signed with Avco Records, who gave him a $15,000 advance for an album project in 1972.
		Avco was already upset because All Platinum Records were releasing records on Elbert the same time they were, messing up their marketing program.
		(All Platinum claimed they were releasing previous recorded, but unreleased tracks.) Avco leased the tracks to Trip Records four years later, who packaged them and released this sub-par LP banking on Elbert's name for sales.

	Vicki Bird
		By 18 she had won a recording contract with Nashville based Avco Records, was touring the road with George Jones and had debuted on The Grand Old Opry.
		Avco Records folded, and Nashville turned its back on the kind of country music Vicki had always claimed as her own.
		Signing with a new record company, 16th Avenue, Bird felt she quite possibly could be on her way but, to her amazement, this label also folded.

	GaryCriss
		Based on my knowledge Gary had solo recordings prior to this on the Diamond label sometime in the 1960's.
		And given the disco-era's knack for flooding the market with anything that brought in a few bucks it's even more surprising that by 1979 he was all but gone.
		With that record on the charts I had the opportunity to travel the country with what was then called "The Dick Clark Caravan Of Stars." After that I worked with my band around the country which at that time was called "Gary Criss and The Crystals" clever huh !.

		After working initially with Sebring Records they were then signed to the larger Avco Records with whom they enjoyed their first top ten single in 1971.
		This is another record that has come in for some criticism for being bland and is seen by some as being yet another marker along the road of Simply Red decline.
		The genre as it is now doesn’t sell as many records as it did in the early days because it’s programmed more and more as an ambient lifestyle experience, and so many of the instrumental songs that are played are indistinguishable from the next one.
