GUILD
RECORDS

 Independent label: A label dedicated to choral music and organ music.  Guild was set up in 1967 by Barry Rose (organist, and master of the choristers, of Guildford Cathedral at the time) and Nick Ware.  Its first batch of three EPs featured either the choir or the organ of Guildford Cathedral; the fourth featured Rose himself playing English organ music.  Guild flourished, and it continues as a label to the present day, though it issued what appears to have been its last-but-one 7" record - Roger Fisher's 'The Organ Of Chester Cathedral' EP - in early 1970, the vast majority of its releases have been LPs or CDs. Most of its EPs were available in stereo or mono: stereo records have a 'GRS' prefis, mono ones a 'GRM' one.  Numbering was in the 300s. EPs, were pressed by Decca and were Orlake pressings. My Thanks to Robert Lyons for the info. Guild Records Former Address: 1 Cathedral Cottage Ridgemount Guildford Surrey.
