RHAM
RECORDS
Independent label: Rham Records is a British
independent record label originally formed in Wallasey, Merseyside, England in
1987 by Barry Lancaster-Smith and Peter Leay. Rham was launched as an offshoot
of indie/rock label Skysaw Records to release dance music predominantly from the
north west of England, with early releases mostly from Manchester based artists.
Initially envisaged as a hip hop and street soul label. The label was most
notable for discovering and releasing in 1988 early UK acid house anthem and
Hacienda club classic “Voodoo Ray” by A Guy Called Gerald. The single spent 18
weeks on the UK Singles Chart eventually reaching number 12, and was awarded
best selling independently released single of 1989 by Music Week and the British
Phonographic Industry. Its eventual success was despite the collapse of the
record’s early distributor Red Rhino, which wiped out the label’s
finances.. Rham Records Former Address: Station House Atherton Street. New
Brighton
Merseyside L45 2NY. Distributed By Red Rhino and Pinnacle
Records.
