World Wide Artists

WWA (World Wide Artists) was a record label that released In A Glass House in 1973. GG fan John Sposato contributed the following information about the label:

The short-lived label WWA (World Wide Artists) [...] was run by Svengali Patrick Meehan. Black Sabbath were on this label for a period around the same time at home as they were also stablemates for management, hence the joint tour where Phil had a bit of a swear at the audience in LA! WWA are probably best known in this cult following as the ones who released In A Glass House in the UK and Ireland while not even an obscure US label would put it out here. It was distributed by Phonogram (PolyGram). I asked a retired record shop owner in Florida how he was able to get imports before there was the web, and he said he had established relationships with pen pals abroad (much like I do today) and various distributors including Jem in South Plainfield, NJ. The label went the way of BTM by the time the band signed to future sister labels Capitol and Chrysalis.
