In 1973, the Grateful Dead established their own record label, Grateful Dead Records. The band released four vinyl record LPs on the label in the mid-1970s: Wake of the Flood in 1973, From the Mars Hotel in 1974, Blues for Allah in 1975, and a live double album, Steal Your Face, in 1976. Album distribution was negotiated and contracted by the band's label through United Artists Records. Round Records, a secondary label, was used to release solo albums by members of the band.
