Lamb & Lion was Pat
Boone's Label. The original logo (pictured above) even said "Pat Boone Productions." Early on, it was
associated with MGM on the secular side, and distributed by Word to Christian bookstores. MGM was
originally going to put out albums on the Lamb & Lion label with the LAL-9000 series, but decided
against it, opting to issue an album or two on the MGM label in their normal SE-4800 pop series.
The label was definitely a vehicle for the Boone Family to record and issue records, but it was more than
that. Contemporary Christian stars Gary Chapman, Dogwood, Steve Green, and Degarmo & Key were
among those who got their starts on the Lamb & Lion label. They also brought in talent from outside the
United States (for example, The Family Tree was from Australia, Ulf Christiansson from Sweden)
In the mid-to-late 1970s, Lamb & Lion switched distribution from Word to Benson, and in 1983 shifted
their series from the LL-1000 to the LLR3000 series and switched to Sparrow for distribution. The label
changed at that point to one with Sparrow's logo, also, and several albums from the LL-1000 series were
reissued in the LLR3000 series.
Early Lamb & Lion labels were tan. with dark brown print, with the Lamb & Lion/Pat Boone logo at the
top of the label.
The first label was replaced in 1977 by another tan label with a slightly modified logo.
The second tan label was replaced by a green label with a multicolor band around the
label, and a picture of a lamb with a lion behind it on the right lower part of the label.
By 1981, the label had evolved to a blue label with a lamb and lion in the clouds, with sunrays shining
down. The label name was repeated nine times around the edge of the label.
When Lamb & Lion went to Sparrow in 1983, the label changed to grey with a
brown Lamb & Lion logo at the top of the label and a Sparrow label at the right of the center hole.
