Do you ever hear a song in a film and find yourself singing along?
The tune fits into the scene perfectly and makes you smile. Ever wonder who owns some of those songs?
Malaco Music Group has been in the movies (...and television and commercials) since the 1980s.
When visitors come into the lobby, one of the first things they notice are the movie posters. They line the walls from the lobby to the studios, to Tommy Couch, Sr.'s office to the kitchen and all the way around to the Gospel Suite. Movie posters are hanging everywhere.
Over the last forty years, Malaco acquired some of the most sought after publishing catalogs and master recordings to add to its already substantial collection. Early, classic R & B and Blues hits coupled with sacred Gospel tracks make for an impressive assortment of titles, including those from Savoy, Apollo and Muscle Shoals Sound. Artists such as Mahalia Jackson, Mississippi Fred McDowell, King Floyd, Mississippi Mass Choir and Dorothy Moore have strong ties to a little ol' label in Jackson, Mississippi.
