Argo Records was a record label in Chicago that was established in 1955 as a division of Chess Records.^[1]^[2]

Originally the label was called Marterry, but bandleader Ralph Marterie objected, and within a couple of months the imprint was renamed Argo.^[3]

Although Chess was a blues label, the Argo division began to record jazz in 1955 and over decades attracted some big names: Gene Ammons, Kenny Burrell, Barry Harris, Illinois Jacquet, Ahmad Jamal, Ramsey Lewis, James Moody, Max Roach, Red Rodney, and Ira Sullivan.^[4]

Argo also recorded pop, blues, and calypso. Its first big hit was by Clarence "Frogman" Henry, whose song "Ain't Got No Home" came out in 1956.^[5] By 1960, rhythm and blues performers on the label included Etta James and the Dells.^[6]

Argo changed its name in 1965 to Cadet Records when the company discovered that an Argo Records already existed in the UK.^[7] As with its parent label, the catalog is owned by Universal Music Group.
