LYRAGON
RECORDS
The Lyragon record was a subsidiary label of
Polydon records, designed to appeal the many new West Indian immigrants into
Britain at the time with its mixture of calypso and jazz music. The label was
first issued in November 1952 and ceased in November 1954 following Polygon's
link with Pye. All records are 78rpm format, though two 10" LPs were issued
during this period. The 78s had a J-700-series catalogue starting at J-700 and
running to J-733. The British-based 10" 78rpm Record label seemed to specialize
in music from the Caribbean. 'Lord Kitchener' was the stage name of Aldwyn
Roberts, one of the best-known of all Trinidadian calypso singers.
