Vesuvius Records is a record label that operates somewhere between the definition of an "imprint" label and a small "indie" record label. When a label is strictly a trademark or brand, not a company, then it is usually called an imprint, a term used for the same concept in the publishing industry. An imprint is sometimes marketed as being a project, unit, or division of a record label company, even though there is no legal business structure associated with the imprint. Vesuvius Records has a place in the history of the music industry because the label imprint has been present on the "indie" scene in each of the last six decades.
