GOOD VIBRATIONS
RECORDS

Good Vibrations Records was An independent Punk and New Wave label from Northern Ireland, one which is generally revered by enthusiasts for that kind of music.  Good Vibrations worked out of Terry Hooley's record shop in Belfast, and is famous for putting out the first records by The Undertones.  From 1978-79 it issued around seventeen singles, in two different catalogue series: a GOT-0 one, mainly for home-grown product, and a GVI-GOT-000 one - 'Good Vibrations International' - generally for groups from the rest of Britain.  The Jets' 'Original Terminal',  was GV-1002, appears to have been an exception to the usual numbering: was this a reissue?  In the autumn of 1979 Good Vibrations records were handled by Rediffusion and Pinnacle on the mainland; several early singles were re-released at this time. After 1979, money problems meant that the pace slowed.  Several planned releases were cancelled, and the only issues in 1980 were some that had been prepared for issue in 1979.  A slight revival took place in 1982, and a more long-lasting one in 1990. The Labels were generally paper, but the occasional injection-moulded one appeared. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
