Yeah, the early Weavers on Decca sounded like a big band group. I've read that Decca added the band to make the Weavers more commercial. They sure sounded different after they moved to the Vanguard label.
I suppose the Limeliters sound a lot more commercial than other groups because they were on RCA. Probably make a lot more money because of the label they were on, too.
