US Epic Records was launched in 1953 by CBS for the purpose of marketing jazz and classical music 
that did not fit the theme of the more mainstream Columbia Records. 
Its bright-yellow, black and blue logo became a familiar trademark for many jazz and classical releases. 
By 1960, the label's musical base had been expanded to include all genres.
In Britain, Epic first appeared in 1971 and seems to have replaced the Direction label.
