David Kapp founded his own label after stints with Decca and RCA Victor.

Catalogue albums that continued to sell were renumbered and reissued on the MCA label.

Four Corners was formed to promote European artists, such as Françoise Hardy, Raymond Lefèvre, and the Barclay Singers.

Throughout Kapp's history, its logo was a stylized "K" incorporating a phonograph record design.
