Off Centaur Publications
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Off Centaur Publications was the first "commercial" filk label. It was founded in 1980 by Teri Lee, Jordin Kare, and Catherine Cook. For a short time, Off Centaur produced high quality recordings of some of filk's best performers, and changed the course of filk music. [1]
Like many other filk labels the name was a pun (see also Wail Songs)[citation needed]
Releases from this label are very difficult to find. At an Interfilk auction at FilKONtario, a copy of Horsetamer's Daughter was sold for CA$400.00.[citation needed]
Off Centaur Publications was inducted into the Filk Hall of Fame in 1995.[2]
