GUARDIAN RECORDS N' TAPES
RECORDS

Independent label: Guardian Records N' Tapes Records was owned by Terry Cavaghan; its issues were recorded in his home studio in the oddly-named village of Pity Me, in County Durham.  Guardian's first record, an EP by the Moat Brothers Country Band featuring 'Ramblin' Man' and three other tracks, had a catalogue number of GRMB-1, and is reported to have come out in 1976, but GRB A-2, 'Fools Paradise' by Burlesque, came out in 1978, which casts some doubt on that dating.  The label continued to release records until 1984, and covered a broad spectrum of music from Country to Heavy Metal.  During the '70s prefixes consisted of 'GR' plus the artist's initial, sometimes with an additional 'A' or a 'B'; the numbering seems to have been shared by singles, EPs and LPs alike during that time.   The few Guardian 7" records from that period pressed were small, so the records on the Guardian label would not be seen very often.  Distributed By Guardian Records N' Tapes Records.
