George G Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Here are a few that I believe had no other releases Four Tracks - Mandingo Rufus Wood - Espanola Camaro's - Dar Cha Jewel - Jewel Productions The Crow - Inner Ear Mind & Matter - M&M Florence Trapp - You & I Jesse Fisher - So Jamm Marylin Smith on SoJamm.... yep, the Four Tracks is the only record on 'Mandingo'. The address on the label mispells the street name (Door vs Dorr) There's a big misconception about what is a record 'label' spread by inconsistent sites on the internet. Back in the 60s (and the 1970s) anyone could record a couple songs and send the tape off to a custom pressing plant....in the process they would create a 'label name' for their record which could be a street one of the members lived on, a family pet, a little sisters' name, a mothers' name...etc. These names are 'labels' in the sense that they are printed as such, but there's no 'company' behind them and multiple releases were probably never intended or only dreamed about. IMO a label is only a label if it either was run by a party apart from the performer and which the owner (let's say financer) put money into for promotion and had at least one more release by a different act. There were some artist 'owned' labels that qualify if in addition to the artist's releases they released and promoted other artists who did not include the same performers.

Garswood Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 David vance-be mine again (TORCH) nice mid tempo number, him and his friend formed the label to release this one record, recorded it overnight in a studio in miami( it was cheaper that way) pressed about 200 but it had no local success at all, he's now an artist iving / working in miami and when i emailed him he was so surprised that his record was being played in a 3 bed semi in wigan, lol, he'd forgotton all about it then told me all about how he had flu recording it and had to sleep on studio floor and had to record in one take, good story...atb phil Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
