Founded in 1975 as Soul Train Records by Dick Griffey and Soul Train television show creator Don Cornelius, following Cornelius' decision to focus on the hit TV show the label became SOLAR (the Sound Of Los Angeles Records) in 1977. SOLAR went from strength to strength in the '80s with massive hits such as "The Second Time Around", "Night To Remember" and "I Can Make You Feel Good" (for Shalamar), "And The Beat Goes On" and "It’s A Love Thing" (The Whispers), and "Operator" and "Midas Touch" (Midnight Star).
