Zero Records

Zero Records

Zero Records is a record studio located in in Vancouver, Canada. The fallout from Jury Records resulted in the formation of Zero Records.

History

In the late 50’s, Don Grashey met Charlie Chuck Williams (Chuck) in Thunder Bay. The pair later moved to Vancouver.

Ray Chamberlin was instrumental in persuading Norm Burly (a "well-to-do", retired lumber industry executive from Sechelt) to join the venture. With the financial help of Norm Burley, and Art Phillips (who would later become Mayor of Vancouver), Zero Records was formed. ["Honky Tonk Make Believe", Don Grashy - Co. Joseph Mauro,"MY RAMBLING HEART"(Washington. D.C., 1995), pp. 45]

Grashey would run the business as President, the A&R Department and the publishing company Trilite Music. Grashey would run the business as he saw fit, sign the acts het wanted to sign and record and promote them without interference from any of the other shareholders. He had check-signing privileges for the company bank account to prevent any recurrence of the fiasco of Jury Records.

Zero Records (under the direction of Don Grashey) produced and recorded singers like Loretta Lynn, Lucille Starr, Myrna Lorrie, Buddy De Val, Bob Regan and recording star Carroll Baker.
