RSO Record Label

DEDICATED TO ROBERT STIGWOOD (1934-2016) WHO DIED ON JANUARY 4, 2016.

I'm talking about a record label that was founded a long time ago.

It was founded in the early seventies and the label was called RSO.

They were once a very successful corporation.

RSO stood for 'Robert Stigwood Corporation'.

When it came to stars like Andy Gibb and Eric Clapton, RSO managed their careers.

RSO was founded in 1973 and sadly, the record label ended after just ten years.

They also managed the careers of Yvone Elliman and the Bee Gees.

RSO manufactured records about 'The Empire Strikes Back' and 'Return Of The Jedi' before dissolving in 1983.

In 1980, the Bee Gees slapped RSO with a two hundred million lawsuit.

There was a settlement for an undisclosed amount that ended the dispute.

In 1983, many people hated to see them go.

The world is a better place because of RSO.
