AKP / ALLAN KING PRODUCTIONS
RECORDS
Independent label: AKP Records was a
small independent label, operating out of premises in Southfield Gardens,
Twickenham. AKP seems to have released just the one record, an early
example of UK-recorded traditional-style music from the Indian subcontinent: it
was an EP by Sangeet Sargham, offering the tracks 'Duniya Mein', 'O Meri
Sharmilee', 'Mere Sapon Ki Rani' and 'Fiya To Abto Aja'. The EP was made
at, and released through, Eden Studios in 1973; in addition to its AKP catalogue
number, AKPS-1000, it had an Eden one, EDEN EP-58. Allan King, the man
behind the company, went on to found Group K Broadcasting Ltd and to enjoy a
successful career which included a considerable stretch as a Sky News
presenter. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The
