JUNTA
RECORDS
Junta Records was a DIY label. It managed one single.
'Red Planet', by the owners of the label, The Comsat Angels (JUNTA-1;
1979). The single came in two different forms: a black vinyl version and a
red one. It was distributed by Company Records, of Lincoln. In 1980
the Angels were signed by a major record label, Polydor; from then on,
presumably, there was no further need for Junta. The Comsat Angels were an
English post-punk band from Sheffield England, initially active from 1978 to
1995. Named after the J. G. Ballard short story "The Comsat Angels", the
foursome's core lineup (lasting 1978–1992) consisted of: Stephen Fellows –
vocals, lead guitar; Kevin Bacon – bass; Mik Glaisher – drums; Andy Peake –
keyboards. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
