The DynoVoice and NewVoice labels were formed by Bob Crewe in New York City in 1965. A&R on
the label was by Crewe himself. NewVoice, like DynoVoice, was distributed by Bell. Albums on
NewVoice
started a bit later than DynoVoice, in 1966, after Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels hit it big with "Jenny
Take a Ride" about the start of the year. The second album on the label was by folk singer Norma
Tanega. After that, the label's album output was limited to Mitch Ryder albums. The albums by Mitch
Ryder and the Detroit Wheels on New Voice were produced by Bob Crewe, while the Norma Tanega
album was produced by Herb Bernstein.
Late in 1967, Crewe consolidated the two labels into a new, Dot-distributed DynoVoice, complete with a
new logo and completely different look. In 1969, Crewe
abandoned the DynoVoice name in favor of his own, and started the "Crewe Group of Companies", or
CGC, of which the Crewe Label was a part.
The NewVoice label started as a green label with black print. Later it changed to blue with
silver print. Later issues of the green-label albums are found with the blue label. The design was the
same
on both labels, with "NEW VOICE" on two
lines above the center hole; the "N" and the "V" are connected.
