MTM Records was an American independent record label specializing in country music. It was founded in 1984 as a subsidiary of the production company of the same name owned by actress Mary Tyler Moore.〔 After MTM Enterprises was sold to Britain's Television South PLC in July of 1988, the label was purchased by and absorbed into RCA Nashville. Staff songwriters included Radney Foster and Bill Lloyd of Foster & Lloyd, as well as Larry Boone and Hugh Prestwood.〔 In its four years of existence, fifty-two singles on the MTM label charted on the ''Billboard'' country singles chart. The label also signed three rock music acts: The Metros from Minneapolis, Minnesota, who were discovered on ''Star Search''; In Pursuit, a New Wave rock group, and The Voltage Brothers. None of those groups' output charted. When MTM Records' catalogue was purchased by RCA, Becky Hobbs, Paul Overstreet, and Judy Rodman were transferred to RCA's roster. Holly Dunn then signed with Warner Bros. Nashville, and her MTM masters went with her (Warner Bros. rereleased the original MTM hit version of Ms. Dunn's hit, "Daddy's Hands," as the B-side of her 1990 hit single "Maybe I Meant Yes"). The Girls Next Door eventually signed with Atlantic Records, but their MTM hits are still owned by RCA. ==Artist roster== *The Almost Brothers *The Debonaires *Holly Dunn *The Girls Next Door *Marty Haggard *Hege V *Becky Hobbs *In Pursuit *The Metros *Paul Overstreet *Judy Rodman *Ronnie Rogers *S-K-O *The Shoppe *The Voltage Brothers 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MTM Records」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
