GFR
RECORDS
Independent label: GFR Records no company
name on the label, but as its catalogue number was GFR-001 I have taken the
prefix as being the label's name, which may not in fact be the case. That
record was the one shown above, an EP, 'Opening Gambit', by Singer / Songwriter
Steve Chilcott. As the label details indicate, it was recorded in
Manchester; at Smile Sudios, which had its own 'Smile' label. There was a
second GFR record, 'Planxty Irwin' (GFR-002; S82-CUS-471), which was pressed by
SRT and came out in 1982. That had a gypsy caravan on the label, so
perhaps the 'G' stood for 'Gypsy'. Distributed By GFR Records. Thanks
to Robert Lyons For The Info.
