FREE RANGE
RECORDS

Free Range Records was a DIY label and a subsidiary of Plastic Fantastic Records, which explains its use of the 'PF' prefix.  Free Range seems to have issued just the one single, 'Never Wanna Leave', by Punk band The Red Lights (PF-005; 1978).  Other records in the PF-000s appeared on the Plastic Fantastic, Spade and Stag labels. One thing that sets Free Range apart from all the other labels of the 1970s that I have seen is that it had the copyright date in Latin numerals - MCMLXXVIII - which seems a bit posh for a Punk concern.  Manufacturing and distribution were by Pye. The Red Lights hailing from Deptford, London started off life as The Rats. After venturing into the City with their first appearance at the legendary Roxy Club. Band Members Ashley Cadell (Guitar) / Andrew McLauchlan (Vocals) / Andrew Howell (Bass) / Dave McMullen (Drums).  Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
