PLUS 8
RECORDS
Independent label: Plus
8 Records was from the second half of the '70s, Plus 8 was a product
of Ron Lee's Lee Sound Recording Studios, of Pelsall, near Cannock,
Staffordshire. I doubt very much that Lee Sound actually issued
records, as such; Plus 8 looks suspiciously like one of those labels which were
put on private pressings, in limited quantities, for people - Folk singers, Club
and Cabaret performers - who wanted them. A listen to the tracks on the
Lee Wilson EPs tends to confirm this suspicion. The earliest record in
this series was an album on a label called 'Rainbow' label, and two of the next
three were on the 'Chrillimac' label, which suggests that Lee Sound tried a few
different names before setting on 'Plus 8'. Albums and singles shared the
same PE-100 (or possibly PE-111) numbering. Records on Plus 8 are very
uncommon, as might be expected. Pressing was by Lyntone. PE-118 was
apparently a reissue of Great Western DM-003: it has that matrix number in the
run-off, scratched out. Distributed By Plus 8 Records. Thanks to
