Terry Katzman

Terry James Katzman (March 8, 1955 – November 8, 2019)[1] was a producer, sound engineer, archivist, and record-store owner in Minneapolis, Minnesota, known for his work with the Twin Cities music scene, particularly during the formative early years of Hüsker Dü, The Replacements, and The Suburbs.

Katzman was a mainstay of the early punk rock scene in Minneapolis beginning in the late 1970s.

Under Katzman's guidance, the label would also release several compilations of regional underground and alternative bands, as well as albums by local post-punk bands Rifle Sport, Man Sized Action, Otto's Chemical Lounge, and Articles of Faith, as well as the Minutemen's 1985 EP Tour-Spiel.

[7] One recording of a Replacements performance at a house party in January 1982, which was shut down by the Minneapolis police amid angry shouting from the partygoers, was used as the intro audio on the band's Stink EP.

[8] Garage D'Or released several CDs archiving live shows by seminal punk and New Wave-era Minneapolis bands, including the Suburbs' High Fidelity Boys - Live 1979 and the Suicide Commandos' The Legendary KQRS Concert 1976.
