STICKY
RECORDS
Independent label: Sticky Records of Southend,
was a label of distributors Enterprise Records. Sticky appears to
have made two separate attempts at cracking the singles market. Its first
batch of singles, dating from 1973, were numbered in the STY-0s; catalogue
numbers suggest that there were at least six of them, the first of them came out
in April of that year. Naturally enough, they were distributed by
Enterprise themselves. After the sixth release Sticky seems to have been
shelved. A gap of three years or so followed; then in March 1977 another
single was issued, this time numbered in an STY-100 series. The
following year saw another two releases in that series, so the schedule was
hardly a busy one. The label design is the same for both series.
Various kinds of music can be found on Sticky. In its first incarnation it
leaned towards Soul, with some product licensed from American labels; in its
second it was distinctly Rockier. Latterly Sticky was marketed by
President Records, with distribution by Lugton and H. R Taylor. The late
'70s saw the appearance of another Sticky label and a couple of 'Sticky Label'
labels, while in the early '80s a third Sticky label released at least five
singles using a PEEL OFF-0 numerical series. Thanks to Robert Lyons
