The original idea was to provide a label to release American's more alternative artists in Europe and the UK while their mainstream acts were handled by a major. After changes within American Recordings the partnership ended.

In 1993, it was renamed American Recordings. It has gone through many distributors since its founding, including Warner Bros. Records, BMG (Europe), Island Def Jam Music Group and now Sony Music Entertainment since Rick Rubin was hired as co-president of Sony Music's Columbia Records in 2007. Distributed By Beggars Banquet Records.
