John Boyden (14 September 1936 – 21 September 2021) was a British classical music executive. After national service in Malaya he joined the staff of the Oxford Street HMV. Boyden then founded his own Philharmonic Records shop in Richmond and the record label John Boyden Recordings. By 1967 he was working with Paul Hamlyn at the Music for Pleasure joint venture with EMI, where he founded the Classics for Pleasure sub-label.
In April 1975 Boyden was appointed the first managing director of the London Symphony Orchestra. He was fired in October after part of the board unsuccessfully attempted to remove chief conductor André Previn. Boyden afterwards wrote for Private Eye as their music correspondent, under the pseudonym Lunchtime O'Boulez. Boyden launched the Enigma Classics record label with Peter Whiteside in 1976, which was sold to WEA two years later. Boyden was disillusioned with the amount of post-production editing on classical music, and re-founded the New Queen's Hall Orchestra to produce music more in keeping with his ideals.
