In 1990, Galante returned to New York to become national president of RCA Records. He returned to Nashville in 1995 to run the RCA and BNA labels in Nashville as chairman of RLG/Nashville. He was named chairman of Sony Music Nashville in 2007 and served in that position until 2013.〔

Galante began working with RCA Records in 1971. After moving to Nashville, Tennessee in 1974 for what was supposed to be a temporary stay, he became director of RCA's Nashville branch. He received criticism at the beginning of his RCA career because he lacked the traditional musical background that typical record label managers had. He continued to move up, becoming vice president of promotion and marketing. In 1982 he became the head of RCA Records Nashville. In 1990 he was brought back to New York to be named the president of all of RCA Records in the US. This marked the first time that a label head from Music Row in Nashville became the head of a major label. With Galante as the head of the label, RCA Records was the number one country label for 11 years in a row. This began in 1982 when he became president, and continued on to become the longest streak for RCA to be number one. He was presented with the Bob Kingsley Living Legend Award by the Opry Trust Fund to honor his work for country music and RCA on February 10, 2015.
