La Parlophone è una casa discografica fondata in Germania nel 1896 come Parlophon da Carl Lindström (1869–1932), un inventore svedese che viveva a Berlino dove aveva fondato la Carl Lindström Company che produceva fonografi e grammofoni; la denominazione verrà cambiata solo nel 1927, dopo l'acquisto da parte della Columbia. In Italia invece, non confluendo l'etichetta nella VCM, ma rimanendo autonoma, la denominazione resterà comunque Parlophon.
