with musician Herb Alpert and together, they transformed the record label from a two-person business out of a garage to one of the industry’s most successful independent labels.From the 1960s through the ’80s, A&M Records released countless smash hit albums such as Alpert’s “Whipped Cream & Other Delights” and Carole King’s “Tapestry.” They recorded the music of the Police, the Carpenters, Cat Stevens, Janet Jackson, Joe Crocker, the Go-Gos, Peter Frampton and Sheryl Crow. “Every once in a while a record would come through us and Herbie would look at me and say, ‘What did we do to deserve this, that this amazing thing is going to come out on our label?’” Moss told Artist House Music, an archive and resource center, in 2007.Both Moss and Alpert were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2006 for their contributions to the industry.
