KERREL
RECORDS
Kerrel Records was a DIY label. Run by Bill / Billy
Matthews - he was responsible for the only two releases that I have so far been
able to track down on that label. One of them, an EP featuring 'Mona
Lisa', 'Morning Has Broken', 'Heard It Through The Grapevine' and a medley
'Smile / Ipanema' was made through Deroy Records, which makes it of interest to
collectors of that company's products. Its catalogue number was DER-1411,
and it came out in 1978. The other was a single, 'Axe-I-Dent' b/w
'Engraved', which had a catalogue number of WM-38 and was undated.
Presumably the 'WM' part was Billy's initials; what the '38' indicated is
anybody's guess. The single looks early '80s to me, but it's unusual
enough for me to justify slipping it in here. Distributed By Kerrel
Records. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
