Vinyl records by Newfoundland & Labrador's pioneer recording artists.

Program Title: NewFound Records - Ep. 557 - 1980 Part 1
Description: For this episode, we roll back the clock forty years to 1980.

Brian Peckford was Premier of Newfoundland & Labrador. His government issued a blueprint for economic development stressing greater provincial control over resource development. The first female members of the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary were sworn in. Terry Fox left St. John’s on a cross-country walk to raise money for cancer, and Christoper Pratt designed a new provincial flag to replace the Union Jack.

Musically forty years ago, if you were in the market for the latest Newfoundland-related records, what choices did you have? Tune in to this episode of New Found Records and hear an eclectic mix of those recordings which first hit the bins in 1980.
