RECORDS
Independent label: CMP Records was run by Liverpool-based Country music promoter Country Music Productions. According to the notes on the rear of its sleeve the EP shown, 'Country Code 051' by Hartford West (CMP/GG-1011), was supposed to be a sampler from a forthcoming LP. It was also intended to be one of a series of records featuring well-known Country groups. Sandra Lynton & The Lyntones' six-track EP 'San Lyntone Country' (GG/CMP-1012), which had a light-blue label of a similar design. Both EPs were recorded at the G&G Electronics Studio in Garston. There are no dates on either record, but the only reference online to the company is from the 'Music Yearbook' for 1972-73, which gives its address as being in Haslemere Road, Gateacre, Liverpool 25. The G&G Studio was active at that time, so it seems reasonable to guess that the EPs date from 1972 or thereabouts. Run-off markings suggest that manufacture of the Hartford West EP was through Deroy. Distributed By CMP Records. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
