Don't think I have ever seen this label before, does anyone know anything about it? I was thinking it might possibly be an Irish release...but I really don't know. Other side is "Cowboys To Girls".

Hello Pete

It's all looks Greek to me.

Usually, Irish releases have "Made in Eire" on them somewhere.

It's been such a long time since I saw one close up, but if you remember the Greek Frank Beverly's and Dee Dee Sharp's on Top Tunes or some such label, they were of a similar label design.

Cheers

Hi Mick,

I remember the Greek Frank Beverley 45... but I thought it said it was made in Greece on the label.

The Typography on this one LOOKS like its Irish, but you're right, it would normally say it was 'Made in The Republic Of Ireland'.

The UK copy came out on Ember... which also released LOADS of stuff in the Irish Republic, so this puzzles me....

...and i want it!

record label from South Africa..

Profile:The RPM Record Company (Pty) Ltd. was founded in 1967 by clarinettist Dan Hill and ex-GRC sales manager Matt Mann, with the original offices situated in Electro House, at the corner of Goud & Fox Streets, downtown Johannesburg.

In 1979 the two formed the legendary RPM Studios, the most advanced in the country. The studio joined the Gallo Group in 1982. It was renamed Downtown Studios in 1991 and has hosted artists like Void, Via Afrika, Manfred Mann, Dolly Parton, Simply Red, even U2.
