Pye Records was a British record label whose best known artists included Pye Jazz.

Pye established an American presence in 1969, opening a headquarters in New York City with tape manufacturing by GRT and record distribution through ATV Records. Although a few hits were garnered, the venture was not a success and Pye closed its North American operation in 1976.

As of September 1980, the rights to the name Pye expired and the label was renamed to PRT Records.

    Hi, can anyone help me please? I have a white 7" sleeve with 'pye records the hit makers' printed on it in black, but cannot seem to work out which record/era/genre it belongs to, most of my Pye records are the usual purple running into pink type, absolutely any information would be gratefully received, cheers.

        7N 45531 appears to be an unreleased record by the seemingly unknown artist "Lynn Chalmers". The scheduled release date was 10 October 1975.

          Who writes all the misinformation on the main introductory pages of artists and labels??
          Should be an institution for them where one can throw the key away :)
