A short lived French independent label established by former BYG Records partner Jean Georgakarakos in 1976 along with financier Hugues Balley. Tapioca's brief success was due to signing the pop band Téléphone whose hit single and lucrative signing over to EMI meant they could afford to release much more obscure music.
In 1977 Tapioca repressed 11 albums from the Pôle Records catalogue. For these they re-used the original pressing plates, and pressings were variable (getting worse as the plates wore out). They also messed-up mismatching sides of the LPs by Mahogany Brain and Melody.
Tapioca folded in 1978 after running into financial difficulties, after which Jean Georgakarakos established the company that eventually became Celluloid.
