I can dig loads of opinions on this thread, black rca's, red and white's, mar v lus ( one der ful is tasty too) but personally I've always been a sucker for labels with photo's of the act on them, ala, maskman and the agents, and the lovelites release to name but too. I started collecting a canadian house label on this basis, loads had black and white photos of the act on em, and had to get the lot! sad man that I am.

Coming from the jazz end of town, I always loved the jazz label Prestige.

I'm not sure if you know the logo, but its like a crossroads sign.

You know that time in your life when you think, I know, and I am going to run my own night,

playing my own amazing taste in music, supported by my dj friends.

=

I screenprinted t shirts,flyposted and put out thousands of flyers.

The icing on the cake was a 'friend' giving me a brotherly hug, telling me to keep the faith,

after wrapping my banner, which I had sceenprinted myself, about 25 metres, around himself, to steal it.

The night folded after about three weeks.

That really is a beautiful piece of art for a tiny independent record label. It basically demonstrates that the people involved either cared enough or had plenty of money. A brilliant design.

I also like Mary Jane.

plus it has penguins which is always a big positive

I'm a little bit worried about you Bob. The rare record obsession makes all the sense in the world but this penguin scenario is the thing I can't get my head around...... :lol:

It's easier than that. Google image - right click, then properties, copy URL. Done.

(dont enlarge it, its massive :D )

the colors on this are great. it sort of reminds me of the new day label that billy garner is on. that label has an awesome design.
