PHYSICAL
RECORDS
Physical Records was a DIY label. Owned by Punk band The
Physicals. Its only release appears to have been their, 'All Sexed Up' EP
(PR-001), which came out in September 1978 and is said to sound like the New
York Dolls. Distributed By Physical Records. The Physicals existed from 1978 and
lasted until 1980. They were London based and began playing regularly at such
venues as The Nashville and The Music Machine, soon building a substantial
following. As demand for a record grew the band decided on the fastest option
and recorded 4 songs live without overdubs onto a 2 track Revox machine. They
released it as “All Sexed Up” on their own label Physical Records in September
1978. Despite getting banned purely on the basis of the title by The Independent
Broadcasting Authority it sold all 5,000 copies pretty quickly, since becoming a
collectors’ item. The Physicals Band Members. Bass, Vocals – Crister Sol Drums –
