RECORDS
Independent label: Route Records was one of the Pye group of labels. It issued at least thirty singles between March 1975 and April 1976, a fair number of which were Soul / Disco records, both licensed, such as Harold Melvin's, 'Get Out' (RT-06; 5/75), and home-produced, such as 'Let's Go Funk', by the Dezro Orchestra (RT-29; 4/76). There were however a fair number of Pop singles in the Route catalogue, by artists such as Chicory Tip and Dr. Marigold's Prescription. The Dezro Orchestra was the brainchild of producers Des Champ and Roger Easterby, Dr. Marigold's had appeared previously on Champ and Easterby's 'Santa Ponsa' label, and Route started life shortly after Santa Ponsa expired; which all seems to hint at a link between the two labels. Route had a Top 30 hit in 1976, with 'The Flasher', by Mistura (RT-30); The label's design remained basically the same throughout its existence, the only change of note being that around September 1975 the artist and producer credits swapped places. That may have only been done occasionally, in order to give space for long artist names - by the time RT-30 came out they had swapped back again. Route Records Former address was Walmar House, 296 Regent St, London W1R 5HD. Distributed By Pye Records. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
