The Four Corners of the World label was Kapp's subsidiary for "world" music, mostly European
music, but some Latin American and faux-British music, also. The label was formed in 1964 and lasted
until 1969. As an outlet for world music, it wasn't really expected to have a lot of hits, and it didn't.
Their earliest chart record was a British-sounding single called "Roses Are Red My Love" by the "You
Know Who" Group [4 Corners 113]. Released in November, 1964, this was a transparent
attempt to cash in on the British Invasion, or more specifically, the Beatles, by making listeners unsure
as to who the group really was. Well, it might be the Beatles, right? It almost made the top-40,
topping out at #43, although it made top-10 in Miami, Buffalo, and several medium-sized cities. It also
helped that identifying personnel in the group through any photos was obscured by the masks they
always wore. Years went by with the actual identities of the members a well-guarded secret. Were they
the Undertakers? Were they just a studio group producer Bob Gallo put together for the occasion?
Were the people in the photos even the members of the group?
Almost 50 years later, one of the members of the group finally told the story. Yes, they were an actual
group, and yes, it was they in the photos. No, they weren't The Undertakers or any other group, and no,
they weren't studio musicians. In the photo at right, they are, from left to right, John Piemonte (bass),
Vinny Pollimini (lead guitar), Bobby Esposito (vocals and drums), and Frank D'Avino (rhythm guitar).
Frank's mother made the capes and masks. Bobby (Robert Esposito) wrote their hit. Some of the group
members grew up "right down the block" from Bob Gallo, hence the connection. Piemonte, who has
since moved to Florida, described the group as "four Italians from Brooklyn." Mystery solved. The group
later put out an album on the International Allied label (see discography below).
The next 4 Corners hit charted in October, 1965. Another oddball hit, this one took a children's
sing-and-gesture staple, added "Oh, de dum dum silly oddy-eh, oh de dum dum rum de dum," a few
sound effects, and made it into a pop song called "Inky Dinky Spider (The Spider Song)" [4 Corners
129]. It reached #84 on the pop charts and #23 on the Easy Listening charts. Again we have a
"group" that no one can identify. The French EP at left has a photo of "The Kids Next Door," but the
group is almost assuredly a studio group produced by Morris "Murray" Wecht and Pierre Maheu. Wecht,
an ex-Brill Building songwriter, also wrote the hit and co-wrote the flip. So the five "Kids" pictured may or
may not have anything to do with the group on the record. The voice on the record may be Mary Sinclair,
longtime actress and former model. As with the "You Know Who" group, no followup record at all. The
group just disappeared.
The next chart record was "Wish Me A Rainbow," a pop record by Gunter Kallman and his chorus [4
Corners 138]. It charted in November, 1966, and reached #2 on the Easy Listening charts
but only #63 on the Hot 100. Kallman was a choir director from Berlin, Germany. His remake of
"Chanson D'Amour" [4 Corners 139] entered the Easy Listening chart in March, 1967,
reaching #28 there, but failing to chart on the pop charts overall.
Finally, there was French orchestra leader Raymond Lefevre, who had started his US career on the
parent Kapp label, but was moved to 4 Corners when that label was established. He reached #37 (and
#4 Easy Listening) with "Soul Coaxing (Ame Caline)" [4 Corners 147], which first charted in
February, 1968. He followed that with "La La La (He Gives Me Love)" [4 Corners 149],
which charted in May, 1968 and reached #23 on the Easy Listening chart, but only Bubbled Under at
#110 on the pop charts.
And that was it for chart successes. Other artists with singles on the label included Lolita, Robertino,
Kings Alley, Francoise Hardy (a French star who couldn't buy a hit here), the Ramblettes, Italian
songstress Milva, Art Grayson, Siv Malmquist, Boulou, Gary Bryant, the Clingman Clan, Neil Darrow,
Milton DeLugg, the Coronados, Tammy St. John, Viviana, the Calendar Girls, the Canadian rockers the
Crew-Cuts (who redid "Earth Angel" and "Don't Be Angry"), Kalney Virtamen, Freddy Quinn, Philip
Dante, Heinz Schachtner, Andre Brasseur, Helmut Zacharias, Teddy Mertens, Irving Bean, Sandy
Williams, Claudio Villa, and Michael Polnareff (who incidentally wrote "Soul Coaxing.")
The first commercial 45 label was red with black print, with the blue and white logo (no globe) at the top. The "You Know Who" Group's single was issued with the title several different ways. When it was first released as "Roses Are Red My Love", Bobby Vinton's publisher complained, so 4 Corners retitled it as "My Love", with the "Roses Are Red" part in parentheses either before or after "My Love." | ||
The second commercial 45 label for 4 Corners (far left) was red with black print, with a blue and white logo at left of the center hole. The red and black design, with the logo either at the top or at left, was used for the life of the imprint. Promotional 45 labels, on the other hand, showed considerable variation. At near left is an all-blue print on white promo label. | ||
At far left is a 45 promo label with black print on a white background, with the logo in blue. The 45 promo label shown at near left has all black print on a white background. The large "A" indicates "A" side; other all-black on white promos were known with a star instead of the large "A." | ||
The mono album label shown at far left and the stereo album label (near left) were both red with black print, with a blue and white logo at the top. This label was used throughout the life of the imprint. | ||
Promo album labels varied. At far left is an example of a blue printing on white variation. Other promotional labels, such as shown at near left, were normal commercial labels with a promotional overprint. |
