NERVOUS
RECORDS

Independent label: Nervous Records is a Rockabilly / Psychobilly / Rock 'n' Roll label, run by Rockin' Roy Williams.  Nervous was named after American recording artist Nervous Norvus, who gained a cult following thanks to his 'Transfusion' and 'Ape Call' singles of the 1950s.  It started out in 1978 as a publishing company and issued its first single, 'Rockabilly Guy' by The Polecats (NER-001) in the late Summer / early Autumn of 1979.  The matrix number, EJSP-9272, indicates that the record was made through Ellie Jay. The Polecats were to hit the Charts three times in 1981 with covers of David Bowie's 'John I'm Only Dancing' (POLE-1) and T. Rex's 'Jeepster' (POLE-3) and with a re-recorded version of 'Rockabilly Guy' (POLE-2), all for Mercury Records. The second Nervous single, 'Constipation Shake' by Legendary Lonnie (NER-002) did not appear until 1981. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
