 This label had two periods of activity.In the late 1940s and early 1950s Tempo re-released a series of discs of recordings made c. 1930 for Paramount and a series of discs of musicians working in the revivalist idiom recorded for the marque.From about 1955, after the label was sold, modernists such as Jimmy Deuchar, Tubby Hayes, and Dizzy Reece were recorded.
