That was achieved in seven months, with the first year's sales being just under two million dollars. By 1 October 1972, US monopoly laws had also changed and WEA (the first initial of each of the three main labels) was born. From that time, WEA Australia had its own sales and distribution arm. Adding a warehouse to the offices forced a change of location to George Place, in the Sydney suburb of
