HEAVY
RECORDS
Heavy Records was a DIY label. It managed one single
Corky Carroll's 'Skateboard Bill', which had a catalogue number of HE-101 and
came out in 1978. Carroll was an American surfing champion; he has
released several records in the USA, most notably a single called 'Tan Punks On
Boards' (an 'answer' record to The Tubes' 'White Punks On Dope') for Mike
Nesmith's 'Pacific Arts' label. 'Skateboard Bill' has been described as
'Californian Surf Rock'. The style of the matrix number on the run-off
suggests a Decca pressing; marketing was by Criminal Records. Thanks to
