Gregmark Records was founded by Lester Sill in 1961, a year before he started Philles Records with Phil Spector.

The Paris Sisters recorded five singles for the label, two of them produced by Spector.[2] Caravan is a Gregmark recording attributed to Duane Eddy,[3] but is actually by the session man, Al Casey.
