Trend Records

Formed by Merv Buchanan, Trend Records was responsible for some of the most collectible Canadian music in existence. The label released three albums and a dozen singles, all pressed in very low quantities and distributed locally. Most notably, Bent Wind's Sussex is considered to be the holy grail of Canadian psychedelic recordings. The Cargo album is also gaining more and more recognition. This page features all these and all of the other releases by Trend Records. Check out the photos below for more information Many thanks to Merv Buchanan and Ivan Amirault for their contributions to this page.
