CYGNUS ONE
RECORDS
Cygnus One Records was a DIY label. It
only released one record, 'Greeting Card', by Ozo. It came out in
October 1979, had a catalogue number of CO-1, was pressed in fluorescent yellow
vinyl, and was distributed by Selecta. Ozo was unusual in that the
members of the group were all Buddhists; they had recorded a couple of albums
and several singles for DJM in 1976-78, and had nearly got into the Singles
Chart with the hypnotic, 'Anambra' (DJS-10764, 4/77), It seems possible that
Cygnus One was set up by the group themselves when their contract with DJM
expired. They went on to make at least two more singles, 'Skintight'
(SPS-01), and 'Spirits of Africa' for an equally ephemeral label, 'Sphinx', in
1982. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
