Welcome to my on-line tribute to the London based Chiswick label. Started in 1975 and, under various guises, still going strong to this day, Chiswick put out some of my favorite records ever. Here you'll find an ever growing collection of info, record sleeves, old advertisements and whatever comes to mind. So dig in and enjoy!

Rock On the CD!

Out on April 28th:

50,000,000 Rock On customers can’t be wrong! The three Rock On retail outlets in London each had a distinctive clientele and sold a wider selection of records than any other record stores between them. Hundreds of thousands of people came through the doors of the stalls and the shop and left with fond memories and great records. This CD covers most all of the styles of music sold at the Rock Ons and provides a trip down memory lane for the many regular customers. In these days of downloads this compilation delivers a wide variety of musical styles, but unlike the download it also is informative. Through the doors of the various Rock Ons came Bob Dylan, Robert Plant, Elvis Costello, Joe Strummer, Paul Weller and a host of people who had barely even heard of themselves.
