CHRW London Music Archive


If you haven't visited the site yet, CHRW showcases a phenomenal resource called the London Music Archives which is, in their own words, "a living library of music written, recorded, performed and produced by Londoners". They have quite a list of musicians and bands going all the back to 1967! The 90's are well represented by bands such as these from the 1994 archive: Bassbag, Boatman, Borrowed Tyme, DeForest Kelley, The Frankenstein 5, The Gandharvas, Genocide, The Gurriers, Killswitch... the list goes on. Certainly a trip down memory lane.

The best part: each entry in the archive is downloadable!

Yeah, I've known about this archive, it's been around for quite a few years. I'm the lead singer/ songwriter of the Gurriers, I found it one day when I was googling myself (how 'has been' is that!!).
