TRYFAN
RECORDS
Independent label: Tryfan Records was named after a peak in
Snowdonia, Tryfan was, and is, a division of Sain Records, the premier Welsh
record company. It appears to have had quite a varied repertoire,
including Choral, Jazz and Classical albums as well as Folk, which suggests that
it was a custom recording outlet. Not all its releases were in the Welsh
language, as witness Tumbledownwind's 'The Country Sounds Of Tumbledownwind' EP
(TRF-124; 1979). Initially EPs and singles were numbered in the TRF-100s
and LPs in the TRF-200s, though by the mid '80s all formats seem to be sharing
the same TFR-200 numbering. The lowest LP number I have found so far was
TRF-203, which came out in 1975; presumably the label was launched in that year
or in 1974. By the time that Gavin Woods's CD 'Travelling By Tuba' came
out, in 1995, the numbers had reached TRF CD-376. Given the large number
of releases, Tryfan records seem to be rather hard to trace. Perhaps
they're commoner in Wales. Distributed By Sain Records. Thanks to
