PolyGram Special Imports

In the USA, PolyGram Special Imports (PSI) was a distributor of European product on PolyGram-associated indie labels, focusing on jazz and classical titles. In Canada, PolyGram Special Imports offered nearly any product from PolyGram and PolyGram-associated labels worldwide, as long as the artists weren't signed to Canadian labels; these imported releases were treated as if they were domestic Canadian releases, with the mechanical royalties paid by PSI.
