Fleetwood Records (also known as Fleetwood Recording Studio) was an independent American record label and recording studio based in Revere, Massachusetts. It earned a unique place in music and sports history by focusing on highly specific niches: marching bands, sports audio documentaries, and local garage rock.

The company was founded in 1958 by Raymond Samora, Vin Giarrusso, and audio engineer Dick Blake. It began humbly on a porch in Lynn, MA. Following their initial success, the founders relocated to Revere in 1960, converting a former supermarket at 321 Revere Street into a fully functional, state-of-the-art recording studio.

"Few people know how the company got its name. It seems that recording pioneer (also Drum Corps News co-founder and editor in 1961) Richard Blake stopped in the small village of Fleetwood, NY, right after he purchased his first tape recorder. They actually issued the first drum corps album, featuring the Lt. Norman Princemen from Malden, MA, in 1958." (Drum Corps World)
