Piccadilly Records
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- This page refers to the record label. Piccadilly Records is also the name of a shop in Manchester.
Pye Records formed Piccadilly Records in the early 1960s as an outlet for new acts, including Joe Brown & the Bruvvers, Clinton Ford, The Rockin' Berries, Sounds Orchestral and, later on, the Ivy League who metamorphosed into the memorable Flower Pot Men, famous for their Summer of Love anthem "Let's Go to San Francisco". Piccadilly Records is also known for being the host label to one of the most cutting-edge bands of the 60's, that being The Sorrows.
It was closed in the seventies together with Pye Golden Guinea Records and was replaced by Dawn Records.
