Fourth dimension Life is, with sister subsidiaries StarVista Live and Lifestyle Products Group, a holding of Straight Holdings Global LLC, is an American production company and direct marketer conglomerate, that is known for selling books, music, video/DVD, and multimedia products. The current focus of the grouping is music, video and amusement experiences (such as the StarVista cruises) as the Time Life book sectionalisation closed in 2001. Its products have been sold throughout North America, Europe, Commonwealth of australia, and Asia through television, print, retail, the Internet, telemarketing, and direct sales. Electric current operations are focused in the US and Canada with limited retail distribution overseas.

Overview [edit]

Time Life was founded in 1961 every bit the book marketing sectionalisation of Time, Incorporated. Information technology took its proper noun from Time Inc.'s ain cornerstone magazines, Time and Life, two of the about popular magazines of the era, merely remained contained from both. Starting in 1967, Fourth dimension Life combined its book offerings with music collections (two to five records) and packaged them as a sturdy box set. After Walter Wanger's decease in 1968, its Time Life Films subsidiary also acquired his production visitor Walter Wanger Productions and many of its films. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, the option of books, music and videos grew and was diversified into more than genres. When tape labels were no longer producing vinyl albums in 1990, Time Life transitioned to CD. In the mid-1990s, Time Life acquired Heartland Music, with the Heartland Music label now appearing as a brand. This company was subsequently sold off and is no longer associated with Time Life.

At the end of 2003 Time Life was caused by Ripplewood Holdings L.L.C. and ZelnickMedia to go part of Directly Holdings Worldwide 50.L.C. Direct Holdings Americas Inc. operates as a leader in the sale of music and video products nether the Fourth dimension Life brand. Since 2003, Direct Holdings The states Corp is the legal name of Time Life, and is no longer owned by its former parent Fourth dimension Warner, later Time Inc. on June ix, 2014. In March 2007 Ripplewood led a group that took The Reader's Digest Association private and treated Time Life as a division of RDA. By 2003 onward, a disclaimer on the copyright stated that it is "not affiliated with Fourth dimension Warner Inc. or Time Inc.," who owns the Fourth dimension and Life magazines, which this company name came from.

In addition to the company's moving picture and music core activities, information technology was also the holding company of television and radio combo stations. Stations the visitor owned were KLZ-Idiot box-AM-FM in Denver, WFBM-Television receiver-AM-FM in Indianapolis, WOOD-Telly-AM in Chiliad Rapids, Michigan, KERO-TV in Bakersfield, California, and KOGO-Tv set-AM-FM in San Diego, many of which were sold to McGraw-Hill in 1972; nonetheless, Time Life kept Woods-Goggle box, which became WOTV later on the sale of the other stations, and remained owned by the company until 1984. Time Life was based in the Fourth dimension Life building in Rockefeller Center.

In 2013 Reader's Assimilate Association sold Time Life to Mosaic Media Investment Partners.^[i]

Book serial [edit]

As Fourth dimension Life Books, the company gained fame equally a seller of book series that would be mailed to households in monthly installments, operating every bit volume sales clubs, and known as the direct-to-consumer business model. The original publisher, Jerome Hardy, alleged early that the publisher would succeed through a strategy to "give the customer more than he has any correct to expect."^[2] Several of these volume series garnered substantial disquisitional acclaim unusual for a mass-marketplace mail gild firm.^{[ citation needed ]} For example, the series Library of Photography of the early-1970s featured very high-quality duotone printing for its blackness-and-white reproductions in its original edition, and was of class able to draw on Life 's vast archive of journalistic and art photographs from virtually every major photographer; Foods Of The Globe featured contributions by M. F. K. Fisher, James Beard, Julia Kid, Craig Claiborne and many others; and The Good Cook serial, edited by Richard Olney, featured contributions from Jeremiah Tower, atomic number 26 Grigson, Michel Lemonnier, and many others. Other series of loftier regard covered nature and the sciences, besides as the history of world civilizations. The science books are interesting as ephemera of their time. The content of these series was more or less encyclopedic, providing the nuts of the subjects in the mode it might be done in a lecture aimed at the general public. At that place was too a series on contemporary life in diverse countries of the world. Some other series are much less highly regarded, peculiarly the later on output as the publisher moved away from soberly presented science and history toward sensationalism, popular history, and DIY-themed books. The books, whatever their quality, are easy to find at low prices on the used-volume market, due to their being published in the millions of copies. (Some of the items in this list may as well be single books not in a series, but followed the same types of themes as the book series.)

Yet, of some serial it is known that a particular title in the series enjoyed a much smaller print run than the other volumes in the series, resulting the subsequently-market value of that particular volume and/or the prepare as a whole increasing. Examples include the fourteen volume "40th Anniversary Edition" The Ceremonious War: A Narrative and the 18-volume Voices of the Civil War series, where the volumes "Petersburg Siege to Bentonville" and "Shenandoah 1864" are the rarer ones respectively.

Non-The states-specific topic series were habitually translated into other languages (French being the almost predominant, due to Time Life's desire to have bordering French-Canada served as well), and disseminated through local branches of Time-Life Books in the intended target markets. For some, commonly smaller language areas, Time Life resorted sometimes to licensing out their publications to local publishers, as was for example the example with The Old W and The Enchanted World serial. Even so, not rarely were these translated versions truncated for various reasons. The Dutch linguistic communication versions—disseminated through Fourth dimension-Life Books [International] BV, Amsterdam, the local branch for mainland Europe at the time located at Ottho Heldringstraat 5, 1066 AZ Amsterdam, Netherlands—of History of the World (as "Time Life Wereld Geschiedenis"), The Epic of Flight (equally "De Geschiedenis van de Luchtvaart") and The Enchanted World (equally "Het Rijk der Fabelen"), for case, were shy of four, seven, and eight volumes respectively in translation, whereas the High german-language version of The Old West (as "Der Wilde Westen," and, even though American specific, translated nonetheless due to the connected and unabated popularity of the Western genre in Federal republic of germany), disseminated through the Amsterdam branch as Fourth dimension-Life Bücher, was shy of seven volumes.

Of at to the lowest degree ane book series is known that information technology was initiated past a local co-operative and non by the American female parent company; the 1986–89 book series Australians at War was initiated by Time-Life Books Australia for that country, and therefore relatively rare on American soil.

Time Life no longer publishes books, every bit its book partition, Time Life Books (including its strange subsidiaries), was closed in January 2001.^[2] Fourth dimension Inc./Fourth dimension Warner, however, continues to publish similar fabric through Time Domicile Amusement Inc., only as (oftentimes retail) single volume titles, instead of (direct marketed) book series.

Licensed published volume series [edit]

While the vast majority of published book series were initiated and produced past Time Life itself, the visitor too (re)issued on occasion serial in similar vein every bit licensee nether its ain imprint that were originally produced and/or released by publishers elsewhere, typically for release on the US home marketplace, though serial with a British Commonwealth pedigree were released through Time-Life Books International Amsterdam, as mentioned in the colophons of the individual books. Aside from the translations, the English-linguistic communication versions of the Commonwealth-derived series were published by a variety of publishers for the different English-speaking territories with Time Life as the Usa designated one. These Time Life versions are far less common in the used-volume markets than Time Life'due south own proprietary releases.

Music [edit]

Fourth dimension Life added music in 1967, selling box sets and collections through Time–Life Records. During the 1960s and 1970s, the collections released past Time–Life Records catered to an adult audience, with genres including classical, jazz, swing and orchestral music; and the music of operas and Broadway theatre. On occasion, Time Life offered pop music (generally pre-1955 music, every bit opposed to pop and rock music airing on contemporary hitting radio stations in the United States at the time) in box-sets. Although there were television advertisements, Time Life advertised most of these sets in magazines, specialty catalogs and direct postal service.

In the early on 1980s, Time Life began branching out, offer a series of albums focusing on country music. The first series was 1981'south "Land Music," with volumes focusing on a detail artist and featuring eight or nine tracks per album. 20 volumes were issued, with many of country's greatest artists of the time (Charley Pride was the start creative person featured) getting their own album. Merely until the mid-1980s, Time–Life did not feature a rock music-intensive series for customers, preferring to cater to older adults with conservative music tastes.

Pop music enters the pic [edit]

Time Life's offset successful foray into rock music came in 1986, with a serial called "The Stone 'due north' Curl Era." Each volume in that series—like similar series that followed—focused on a particular yr (in this case, 1955 through 1964—the early, pre-Beatles years of rock music), a stylistic tendency or item artist influential in stone music. Each volume had 22 tracks, and was said to incorporate the original hit recording by the original artist (although this wasn't always truthful on early pressings of the early albums in the series). The songs themselves represented the about important and pop songs from the period or field of study featured. An essay published by Both Sides Now Publications noted that Time-Life's move into rock music came at a time when much of the adult audience Time-Life catered to grew up during the rock-and-roll era and, as such, the new serial was consistent with its goal of catering to an adult audience.^[7]

"The Rock 'n' Coil Era" series was a big success, and past the fourth dimension the final volume was issued in the early 1990s, more than than 50 unlike volumes (including 2 Christmas albums) had been released. This paved the fashion for more land and popular music-intensive series, including "Land United states," "Archetype Rock," "Sounds of the Seventies," "Sounds of the Eighties," "Your Striking Parade" (a series featuring pop music of the 1940s through early 1960s) and "Super Hits." Like the earlier series, each volume issued had its ain paperback booklet containing liner notes and information about the songs, with the improver of placement on various Billboard magazine charts.

Similar the before box-sets featuring other musical styles and genres, the country and pop music series were advertised in magazines, catalogs and direct mail service. By this time, some of these collections were advertised on television: either commercials or xxx-minute infomercials. The television advertisements used slogans (east.g., "Relive your loftier school days ..."), clips of songs included in each volume (forth with a scrolling list of other titles), a commercial spokesman (commonly a performer or legendary disc jockey relevant to a given series, such as Rick Dees for a 1970s-intensive collection and Ralph Emery for a land music series) and testimonials from customers attesting to the quality and value of the albums, to pitch a given series. Key selling points of these collections are that each track was digitally transferred to the desired format using the original master recordings, as opposed to being "re-records"; and that the about popular and requested songs by customers could be found in a single collection (equally opposed to a client having to purchase many albums to obtain just a few desired tracks).

Customers were given a choice of which format they wanted their box set: either vinyl albums (through 1990), 8-track or cassette tape, or compact disc; today'southward box sets are offered only every bit compact discs.

While most of Time Life's box-sets and releases were critically hailed, there were besides some minor faults pointed out by critics. For instance, several early pressings of the early on volumes in "The Rock'north'Roll Era" series contained stereo re-recordings of the original hits (something that would be corrected on later pressings, either with the correct original recording or a replacement track). Sometimes, the most popular songs of a given time period were omitted, oft due to licensing issues. Examples included The Beatles and The Rolling Stones for the Classic Rock and "Super Hits"/"AM Gold" series;, Garth Brooks and Shania Twain on various land music series;, and Prince, Madonna, Whitney Houston, Guns N' Roses, Bon Jovi, Janet Jackson and Michael Jackson on the chief Sounds of the Eighties series.

Through 2010, several dissimilar series Fourth dimension Life had offered were available on a subscription basis, either by calling a 1-800 number or sending a completed postcard-sized bill of fare and payment to Time–Life. Purportedly, the client would become a specific volume (every bit advertised on Television or in a magazine) first, before receiving a new volume roughly every other month (on the format of their pick); customers and had the option of keeping just the volumes they wanted. In time, each volume was as well offered for individual sale.

Several of the series – especially the popular, stone, country and rhythm and dejection series – had retail versions for sale, released afterward the entire serial was issued. Typically, these were sold at discount stores, often grouped in three-CD sets of 12 tracks each and having the well-nigh popular of the series' tracks, and cover artwork and naming loosely based on the subscription/catalog-exclusive titles. Additionally, the "Classic State" serial had special 15-track unmarried-CD versions of several of its volumes issued for retail sale (in add-on to budget 3-CD sets).

Saguaro Road Records [edit]

In 2008, Time Life launched Saguaro Roads Records as an in-firm music recording label.

Under this label, albums have been released with Adam Hood, Blind Boys of Alabama, Bo Bice, Brandy and Ray J, Collin Raye, Dion, Edwin McCain, Hank Williams (estate), Jim Brickman, Joan Osborne, Lonestar, Marc Cohn, Mark Chesnutt, Patty Loveless, Rebecca Lynn Howard, Tanya Tucker, The Grascals, Angie Stone, Waylon Jennings and Don McLean.
