RECORDS
Sir Records was a DIY label. And was a record label of Cabaret band Sweet Illusion, from Kent. Sir issued two LPs by the band: the first, 'Sweet Illusion' (SIR-111 / DTS-007), was made through DTS Records of Rochester, and dates from 1976; the second, 'Two Sides Of Sweet Illusion' (SIR-222), seems to be from 1978. The record which qualified the label for this site, was an EP featuring their version of 'When A Child Is Born' and three other tracks. It had a catalogue number of EP-162, and it too was recorded at DTS. There is no date on it but the Lyntone matrix number, LYN-5926, places it in early 1979. There was also a cassette, '438 Feet Of Sweet Illusion', which may be from the '80s. The tracks on the 'B' side of the EP were 'Speak Softly Love', which is a trumpet-led instrumental, and a medley of Beatles songs, 'Around The Beatles'. Distributed By Sir Records.
