Bandera gospel discography (1961-63)
- The Bandera label was launched in 1958 (Chicago) and was run by a mother and son team, Violet Muszynski and Bernie Harville. Apart from blues, rockabilly, country and pop, they also released a handful of Gospel 45’s, most of which appeared on the sub label Jerico Road.
- At one time the Rush label was connected to Bandera, click here to see label scans of two different issues of Rush 601 by Little Ben & the Cheers (a secular release by a group better known as the Norfleet Brothers amongst gospel lovers). As can be seen, the first label sais “A division of Bandera Records”; this information is not present on the other release shown. Later issues do not show this information either.
- #705 was released on Jerico instead of Jerico Road.
- Jerico Road 706 was probably not released.
- This page lists all known Bandera gospel releases (Bandera, Jerico and Jerico Road).
