Bay Sounds was a Baltimore record label that was probably set up / run by a guy named Milton Dugger Jnr.
Groups signed to the label [[around 1967/68) included the Bleu Lights [[a 4 strong black outfit consisting of Leroy Gordon, Larry Hart, Albert Townes & Phillip Townes) and the Chaumonts [[a mixed race group).
Other artists signed to the label included the Soul Clinic, Crystal & Clay Hunt.
Both of their main groups released good 45's ....
.... the Bleu Lights had 4 singles out on Bay Sound between 1968 and 1970 [[when I guess the label went under).
.... the Chaumonts first release was on the Caravelle label [[under the name Caravelle Ltd -- this company ran the Bay Sounds label) before they also had 4 singles on Bay Sound itself between 1967 and 1969.
George Massenburg was involved in producing tracks by them both [[& other artists on the label).
45's from both groups are much sought after.
