Go! Discs was a London-based record label, launched in 1983 from offices in Wendell Road, Shepherd's Bush, by Andy Macdonald and Lesley Symons. The pair founded the label after Macdonald left his job as press officer at Stiff Records, and Symons provided the seed funding. The first signing to the label was Billy Bragg and early releases also came from Sheffield band The Box and Hull band The Housemartins. Records by the latter's spin-off group The Beautiful South were subsequently issued. Key staff contributors, following a move to Hammersmith, included comedian Phill Jupitus and Cathal Smyth (Madness' Chas Smash). Go! Beat Records was launched as a subsidiary for artists like Beats International, Gabrielle and Portishead. In 1992, Paul Weller signed for the main Go! Discs label.

  • Go! Discs Records ist ein britisches Musiklabel. Das Label wurde im Januar 1983 in London vom ehemaligen Stiff-Records-Pressemanager Andy MacDonald gegründet. Grund, so MacDonald laut New Musical Express (17. Oktober 1987): „Ich dachte einfach: das ist doch einen Versuch wert, und es schien mir ein guter Weg zu sein, das was ich gerne hörte, ins Radio zu kriegen.“ (”I just thought it was worth trying and it seemed a good way of getting some of the things I liked to hear onto the radio.“) Go! Beat Records wurde gegründet als Ableger für Dance-Musik wie von Gabrielle oder Portishead. (de)
