# Legacy Recordings

Legacy Recordings is een platenlabel dat eigendom is van Sony Music Entertainment. Op dit label worden heruitgaven van materiaal uit Sony Musics catalogus uitgebracht. Het gaat dan om uitgaven op cd, dvd, lp en om MP3 en streaming-formaten. Vaak zijn dit speciale edities met bonusmateriaal, zoals extra tracks, speciale versies van tracks en video's.

## Geschiedenis

Legacy Recordings werd opgericht in 1990 door CBS Records. In 1991 werd het onderdeel van Sony Music Entertainment, dat CBS Records had overgenomen. In eerste instantie was het Legacy verantwoordelijk voor de catalogi van Columbia, Epic en andere CBS labels. Na de oprichting van Sony BMG Music Entertaiment in 2004, kwamen ook BMG labels als Jive, Arista en RCA daarbij.
Het centrale doel is om de heruitgaven van albums vanuit één afdeling van Sony Music Entertainment te regelen en overzien; en om regelmatig het oude materiaal in een hedendaags formaat op de markt te brengen.
