Valiant Records

Valiant Records was a 60's record label that was distributed by Warner Bros. Records from 1960 to 1965, was owned by Four Star Television and sold to Warner Bros. in 1967.

Valiant Records was formed in 1960 in California, by singer−songwriter Barry DeVorzon and manager Billy Sherman.

Valiant charted with its first release, "Angel On My Shoulder" recorded by Shelby Flint. DeVorzon's own group, Barry and the Tamerlanes, hit in 1963 with "I Wonder What She's Doin' Tonight." Flint scored again in 1966 with a soft vocal version of "Cast Your Fate To The Wind."

In 1966 DeVorzon rescued folk-rockers The Association from their obscurity at Jubilee Records. They debuted on Valiant (which had just ended a very brief distribution stint with Four Star Television, the distributor of such shows as Burke's Law and Honey West) with a non-charting version of "One Too Many Mornings." The next single records — "Along Comes Mary," "Cherish," "Pandora's Golden Heebie Jeebies," and "No Fair At All" — helped establish The Association as one of the premier Sunshine Pop groups of the '60s.

In 1967, after a little over 110 singles and 11 albums (seven under Warner Bros. and four under Four Star/independent distribution), the Valiant Records label itself ceased to exist and was folded into Warner Bros. Records. Its output remains desirable to collectors, with the early years featuring a string of obscure but worthwhile white pop titles, and the later years an intriguing mix of slick Southern California psych and pop.
