Started in September 1967 by Bobby Fulton, Toby Young, Jimmy Walker, and Hulie Diggs, Soulville Records was conceived to fill the void for a Gospel/Soul record label in the Harrisburg and central Pennsylvania area. The label’s first release was Nobody To Blame b/w Nothing Matters by the Soulville All Stars, a young racially mixed Harrisburg eight-piece band.
