Tempo Records (US)

Tempo Records was a mid-20th century United States–based record label headquartered in Hollywood, California. It was run by Irving Fogel. Tempo bridged the 78 rpm, 45 rpm and 33⅓ rpm generations, releasing discs in all three formats.

Tempo's roster included jazz harpist Robert Maxwell, pianist Mel Henke, cornetist Doc Evans, clarinetist Sid Phillips, Novachord virtuoso Lloyd Sloop, violinist Joe Venuti, Hammond organist Herb Kern, and pianist Ben Light.

Tempo released the 1949 version of "Sweet Georgia Brown" by Brother Bones and His Shadows which was used as the theme song for the Harlem Globetrotters basketball team.
