Golgotha gospel discography (1960’s)

 

• Golgotha was a gospel label from New Jersey. #101 shows a PO Box address in Garfield, NJ. Most issues show an address in Lodi, NJ (88 Money St.). #92, 180 (Happy Landers), 509 and LP 500 show an address in Rahway, NJ (169 E. Albert St.).

• Little is known about the Golgotha label, but it likely was in business during the mid to late 1960’s. Tommy Baker produced most of the recordings.

• Golgotha 133 and 138 seem to have a date written in the dead wax (2-19-68 and 3-25-68).

• Some numbers were used twice (#101, 170, 180).

• It’s uncertain if Golgotha 101 by the Wandering Shepherds is the same Golgotha label. The label lay-out is different and there’s no other information giving a clue.

• The image of Christ on the labels changed with #138. It became a more simple drawing with a reversed orientation.

• Missing numbers are unknown releases and there are quite a few!

• The Golgotha gospel discography lists all known single and LP issues released on this label.
