The label was created to feature many different genres; the mid-1970s success of The Kendalls gave Ovation an image as a country music label, although it continued to record rock and pop.[1]
For several years, all Ovation LPs were released in a 4-channel matrix quadraphonic format, which was compatible with stereo 2-channel playback systems. The label initially used the EV or Stereo-4 matrix but later changed to QS Regular Matrix.
