L.A. International/LAX Records Discography

Home , All Day Music, Eric Burdon, Jimmy Witherspoon, Low Rider, Nuclear Blues, Spill the Wine

This label was sometimes called LAX Records or L.A. Records because of the logo, which was the letters “L” and “A” with the tails crossing into an “X”. Of course, the L.A. International Airport has the abbreviation LAX. Nevertheless, the label name was L.A. International, which appeared in the small print around the bottom of the label. It was owned by Jerry Goldstein of FGG Productions, once known as the Strangeloves and producer for the Angels and many others.
