Omega Records and OmegaTape were the brainchild of Dave Hubert, who recognized that tape playback would beat Hi Fi, hands down.  OmegaTape started in 1954 as the International Pacific Recording Corp.,  licensing recordings for release on AlphaTape and JazzTape.  Later, OmegaTape, which was reserved for stereo, soon became the primary label, and AlphaTape and JazzTape faded away.  By 1958, Dave Hubert was recording his own material, including the Francis Bay Big Band at the Brussells World's Fair.  Later, in the early 1960's OmegaTape and Omega Disk recordings appeared on releases by Premier-Coronet,  (Phil Landwher, Don Pasin) in the New York area, but also continued to come out on Encore, Hallmark and other reel-to-reel tape labels, as well as other budget record labels like Sutton Records and Surrey Records.
