PEPPER
RECORDS
Independent label: Pepper Records appears to have had a fairly
intimate relationship with United Artists: the UA logo appears on its label, and
its singles shared a numerical series with those of UA. Its directors were
Michael Weston, Michael Dufficy and Howard Weston. Producer Jonathan Hodge
seems to have worked on most of Pepper's product, including its two Chart
singles: Peter Blake's 'Lipsmackin' Rock 'n' Rollin'' (UP-36295; 1977), and the
Top 3 hit 'If I Had Words', by Scott Fitzgerald & Yvonne Keely (UP-36333;
1978); the first had a standard United Artists label with a small 'Pepper
Records' logo rather than an actual Pepper label. Despite these
successes, it looks as though the label didn't make it into the '80s.
Before it expired, however, it exchanged its green pepper for a red pepper and
underwent a general change of design. The final three singles had
this updated label. Distributed By United Artists Records. Thanks to
