Geeselad Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 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. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

nickp Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) 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. Edited December 16, 2011 by nickp Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ian Dewhirst Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Has to be that one for me: 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.

Ian Dewhirst Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 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...... Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
