Charisma was a record label founded by former journalist Tony Stratton-Smith in 1969. Unable to find a record company willing to release an album by one of his favourite groups, he founded his own company and released the Van der Graaf Generator album “The Least We Can Do Is Wave To Each Other” himself. The company proudly proclaimed itself “The Famous Charisma Label”. Signings included Genesis, Peter Gabriel, Julian Lennon, Monty Python, Van der Graaf Generator, The Nice, Lindisfarne, Alan Hull, Hawkwind, The Alan Parsons Project, Clifford T. Ward, String Driven Thing, Jack The Lad, Audience, Brand X, Malcolm McLaren, Peter Hammill, Tony Banks, Steve Hackett.
