==History==
The founder of Oglio Records, Carl Caprioglio, has stated that as a youth he was influenced by both the rock playing on Los Angeles radio stations KMET and KLOS and the modern rock of KROQ. He also listened heavily to new wave music. In 1984 he and a friend began to disc jockey at dances and parties in California, eventually forming a DJ business with a variety of other DJs. After he filled in for a friend at a gig with the KROQ DJ, Caprioglio's business began supplying light sound equipment to KROQ, as well as Power 106.〔
In 1992 Caprioglio released his first compilation album,〔 which was titled ''Flashback! New Wave Classics.''〔 In 1993 he left his DJ business to found Oglio Records, which quickly gained a reputation for compilations of rare 1980s modern rock releases. At the time music reissues on CD were a burgeoning field, and Oglio Records successfully competed with larger labels.〔 The label also began releasing re-issues of complete albums by bands such as King, Sparks, the Red Rockers, and Wire Train. Other compilations included ''Flashback Cafe'' (1994), ''Punk University Vol. 2'' (1995), and ''Straight Outta Cleveland'' (1995). In 1995 the label released the compilation ''The Edge of Christmas'', which included Christmas songs by Pat Benatar, The Pretenders, David Bowie and Bing Crosby, The Ramones, The Pogues and others. Oglio Records quickly began releasing original albums as well, such as the 1996 album ''Rock 'N' Roll Will Never Die'' by Wesley Willis.〔 In 1998 Oglio Entertainment was included by ''Inc. Magazine'' as one of the 500 fastest growing companies in America.〔 They are also re-issuing the catalog for the classic ''Television's Greatest Hits''.
