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

Program Title: NewFound Records - Ep. 577 - Rex Hemeon
Description: This episode shines a light on the man who in the mid and late 1970s was a country music star in Newfoundland. Botwood’s Rex Hemeon charted in Canada’s Top 20 in 1979 with his soap opera spoof Bingo & Another World. Rex wrote that song and he penned another number that did real well for him as well, Bubbles In the Glass. Tune in and hear great Newfoundland country music from Rex’s four outstanding LPs and learn a little about the man’s life and times as well.
