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

Program Title: NewFound Records - Ep. 667 - Eastertime
Description: For this episode, New Found Records presents music with an Easter theme. Tune in and you'll hear a mix of hymns, country gospel, plus a delightful secular track by Mary Lou Collins, Newfoundland & Labrador's first child to cut a record!

The program also features Ged Blackmore's production, Resurrexit. In this six-part suite, Blackmore portrays the dramatic events following Christ's crucifixion. This gem of Newfoundland vinyl obscurity from 1975 features a spirited performance by The St. Francis High School Choir of Harbour Grace.

Also on the platter for Eastertime are The New Translation Singers, The Harmony Four, Doug Lane, and Simani.
