SAWMILLS
RECORDS
Independent label: Sawmills Records was a label of
Sawmills Studios, of Golant, Cornwall, it was set up in 1974. One of
Britain's first residential studios, it has played host to many big names over
the years - XTC, Verve, the Stone Roses, etc - and is still flourishing
today. In a diversion from its main line of business it issued several
singles through Sonet Records. Initially, in 1976, the company's name
appeared as a logo on the Sonet label, but in 1978-79 four singles appeared on
an actual Sawmills label, all of which featured Obie Clayton and / or the Golant
Pistons. None of them sold in any quantity. Sawmills singles shared
a SON-2000 numerical series with those of Sonet, the company responsible for
marketing them. Manufacture and Distribution were by Pye. Thanks to
