Overview
Overview
The first album to be released under the label was Fogelberg's second album, Souvenirs. In 1980, distribution moved from CBS to Warner Bros. (movie soundtracks included). Some of the artists affected by the acquisition were Chicago, Grand Funk Railroad, and Johnny Lee. The only exception was Fogelberg, whose Full Moon recordings bore the Full Moon logo and were distributed by Epic throughout. The company was absorbed by Warner Bros. In 1992. The label was briefly revived in 2009 for the release of Fogelberg's final studio album Love in Time, with distribution through Universal Music Enterprises.
