More Info

BYG were a pioneering independant record compagny, one of the first labels to actively
promote diversity and support black African-American musicians and multi-cultural artists worldwide during the 1960’s and 1970’s.

Beginning in March 2022, BYG will reissue their now rare and collectable original albums.

Newly remastered from the original BYG tapes, each album will be released on LP
facsimile-edition & CD with exclusive sleeve notes by Kevin Le Gendre and John Masouri, in high-definition digital audio, downloads and streaming formats.

“BYG were passionate in supporting diversity, against prejudice and narrow-mindedness so I 
am proud we fought for all our artists and their music, no matter what they were, who they were or where they were from [...] This sampler is a testament to their creativity...” Jean-Luc Young, 2021
