<p>A <b>recording contract</b> (commonly called a <b>record contract</b> or <b>record deal</b>) is a legal agreement between a <a href="page.php?w=record_label">record label</a> and a <a href="page.php?w=recording_artist">recording act</a> (artist or group), where the act makes an audio recording (or series of recordings) for the label to sell and promote. Artists under contract are normally only allowed to record for that label exclusively; guest appearances on other artists' records will carry a notice "By courtesy of (the name of the label)",</p><p>
