===1990s: Merger with EastWest Records America and dormancy===
The last [[Billboard Hot 100|number one]] hit on ATCO was "[[If Wishes Came True]]" by Sweet Sensation in 1990. The following year, Atlantic Records Senior VP [[Sylvia Rhone]] orchestrated the merger of ATCO with Atlantic's fledgling [[EastWest Records America]] label and briefly operated the combination as Atco/EastWest Records. By 1994, however, the ATCO name was dropped and the label reverted to the EastWest Records America branding. During this time, EastWest moved its operations to Atlantic's sister label [[Elektra Records]]. As a result of Elektra's takeover of EastWest, ATCO's back catalog and retained artists were now under its control. In the decade to come, the ATCO name and logo would be occasionally used on reissues of past material, but the imprint itself was now dormant.<ref name="LarkinGE"/>
