Fresh Sounds Records (also known as Fresh Sounds Inc) was a Lawrence, KS based independent record label run by local music promoter Bill Rich. Acts who have been on the label include Get Smart!, the Embarrassment, the Mortal Micronotz, SPK, the Homestead Grays and William S. Burroughs.
The first releases were flexi discs that were issued with Rich's "Talk Talk" magazine. The first four albums issued by the label were issued on cassette only before the label started issuing its releases on vinyl.
The "Fresh Sounds From Middle America" series of compilation albums was organized by Bill Rich as a way to promote regional bands nationally.
