SPRING
RECORDS
Independent American label: Spring Records was founded in the late
'60s by Bill Spitalsky and Roy & Julie Rifkind; it enjoyed considerable
success in the States, and can claim to have issued the fist ever Hip-Hop
single, the Fatback Band's, 'King Tim III'. In Britain, Spring's
records were licensed out to other labels, such as Polydor, until 1976, when
they began to appear on the company's own label. Spring managed a few hit
minor singles over here, with the Fatback Band, during the Disco era, but it
seems not to have survived long into the '80s. Manufacturing and
distribution were by Polydor / Phonodisc; Spring singles shared a 2066-000
numerical series, and from 1979 a POSP-0 series, with those of Polydor.
Labels were generally of the injection moulded type and the odd one or two were
coloured silver; but occasionally the more attractive paper type appeared,
presumably as a result of other manufacturers doing contract pressings. Thanks
