Line 30:
Early on, the other artists released on the label covered a wide range of music. Of the many soul acts on their roster, they included Donnie Elbert, the Softones, Maxine Brown, Chocolate Syrup, Limmie & the Family Cookin'. Pop song stylist turned actress and talk show hostess [[Della Reese]] had a disco-styled outing on the label with "If It Feels Good".
 
The label was named simply Avco Records when the 'Embassy' part was dropped in 1971. In 1976, with Avco deciding to exit the record business, Hugo & Luigi bought out the label & renamed it to [[H&L Records]]. In 1978, H&L Records filed for bankruptcy, soon after opening their own new studios in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey. In 1984, [[Amherst Records]] of [[Buffalo, New York]], acquired the Avco/H&L Records catalog.<ref>[https://www.bsnpubs.com/nyc/avco/avco.html Avco Embassy/Avco/H&L Album Discography]</ref>
