Ryko Distribution is, effective immediately, the exclusive national distributor for Berkeley's Fantasy Records and its affiliated labels, it was announced today by Fantasy Executive Vice President Phil Jones. (Bayside Distributors will continue to service the Tower stores.)
“Fantasy's depth and quality of catalog plays perfectly to Ryko's strengths in distribution," says Jim Cuomo, president of the New York-based Ryko operation. “Ryko is arguably the most musically based indie distributor in the industry. We are music fans, and we are thrilled to be representing the artists and repertoire in the Fantasy family."
