United Hot Clubs of America was a record label established in 1936 by American Record Producer, Milt Gabler (1911-2001). Gabler sold UHCA recordings from his Commodore Music Shop in New York. UHCA recordings were pressed directly from the original masters which were leased from notable record companies of the 1920s and 1930s. Originally, the records were sold through a subscription service, but subsequently were more broadly available.
