CA-SONG
1946 – 1949
Founding & offices (1946–1947). Ca-Song was launched in October 1946 in New York City by Michael (Mike) Cassone, initially operating from 1625 Broadway.
By May 1947 the business address had shifted to 56 Court Street, Brooklyn.Repertoire & notable releases.
In late 1947 Cassone ran a short-lived children’s offshoot, the Auto-Photo Record Company (office at 1451 Broadway), whose featured issue was “The Mighty Magic Mandarin,” narrated by Wendy Barrie.
Ca-Song’s original 78-rpm operations appear to have ended in early 1949. That August, Cassone founded Rialto Record Corp.
Decades later, he revived the Ca-Song name for unrelated small-run 7-inch projects in the 1980s/1990s—a separate venture from the 1940s shellac era.
