Gulf (3)

U.S. Country Music/Western Swing record label based in Houston, Texas. One of the first recording companies to be set up in Texas was Bill Quinn’s Gulf label. Gulf made its debut on the scene in the fall of 1945. Quinn, who later ran the legendary Goldstar studio, and label of the same name, recorded fairly well-known local Western Swing acts, including Al Clauser, Moon Mullican, and Jerry Irby.
