DCGS - HLF vs Rosemont 45rpm Catalogs - Archive

[Greg Belson]

Join me this Saturday 28th January on dublab.com @ 10am US PST (6pm UK GMT).

Welcome along to a brand new infrequent feature on the Divine Chord Gospel Show, where we'll be pitting the 45 rpm catalogs of two essential labels from the Gospel world.

First up, we head to 2 stoic cities that provided us with a slew of essential music, some of which you might have heard hour. It's a 120 minute showcase of an hour each featuring;

HLF versus ROSEMONT

HLF was owned & operated by HAYES FARMER out of Chicago Illinois, during the 70's & 80's, whilst ROSEMONT was owned by AL TAYLOR & existed from the 60's to the 90's.

Whilst it's clear that Rosemont was the more prolific of the two in terms of releases, I think it's fair to say that the approach & general aesthetic of both labels, are pretty much hand-in-hand.

We're thrilled to be able to launch this series with these critical labels & share with you some of the original recordings that have come to light over the years.

Essential Digs Gonna Get Dug!
