EASY
RECORDS
An independent label from the Punk /
New Wave years. The Easy label seems to have released at least two records.
The first was an EP by a band called Hazard; it contained the tracks 'Love Will
Keep Us Together', 'Fooled Around (And Fell In Love)', 'Long Train Runnin'', and
'The Way We Were' (ER-01; 1979), the second of which was Silent Noise's
self-financed single 'I've Been Hurt (So Many Times Before)'
(ER-2 / EJSP-9270; 1979). Silent Noise were from Norwich, so perhaps Easy
was too. The EJSP matrix number suggests that the Ellie Jay plant was
responsible for the recordings. Silent Noise were a punk band from
Norwich, UK. Formed in 1978 as Broadside Outcasts the band changed the name to
Silent Noise in 1979. Band members were Neil Currier - Vocals, Dave Smith -
Bass, Steve Fowler - Guitar & Alan ‘Polo’ Pollard - Drums. The band released
one single: I’ve Been Hurt (So Many Times Before) / Heart to Heart on Easy
Records in 1979. Neil Currier was also in Neil Currier &
The Hairdryers & Polo & The
Mints. Dave Smith was also in Dick
Dangler & The Testicles, Neils
