RECORDS
Independent label: Gus Records was a label dedicated to Dance music, of the Square and Barn variety. Gus Records managed at least eight singles, 'Julie' by the Maverick Square Dance Band (JDC-003/004) and three EPs by Ben Burpp's Barn Dance Band, 'Enjoy Yourself' (JDC-0079), 'Ugly Bug Ball' (JDC-0080) and 'Himazaz' (JDC-0082). Presumably there were others, though exactly how many is open to question. There should at least be a JDC-001/002 single out there. The numerical series may be proper to the company through which the recordings were made, rather than to Gus itself, as JDC-0077 and 0078 appeared on the Castleton label. There are no dates on the labels, but 'Ugly Bug Ball' had a matrix number of LYN-3562, which indicates that it was pressed by Lyntone in 1976 - the scan of that label appears by kind permission of Col. Wolfe of the 45cat.com site. Callers Ron Vizard and John Chatfield (for the Ben Burpps) appear to have been active in the Brighton area, which suggests that Gus was from that part of the country.
