Creation Records was a British
independent record label headed by
Alan McGee. Along with Dick Green and
Joe Foster, McGee founded Creation in 1983. The name came from the 1960s band
The Creation, whom McGee greatly admired. McGee, Green and Foster were also in the band
Biff Bang Pow!, which was also the title of a Creation song. The label ceased operations in 1999, although it was revived at one point in 2011 for the release of a compilation album,
Upside Down, spanning songs from the label.
