TANGSONS
RECORDS
Independent label: Tangsong Records was a production
company. Tangsong only managed two issues on its own label, both in 1975:
'Condition Red', by Footsie (TS-101; 5/75), and Spix 'n' Spax's, 'Follow The
Leader' (TS-102; 8/75). Both were aimed at the Northern Soul market.
The label came under the President umbrella, and its products were distributed
by Enterprise and Lugton. Tangsong is one of that small band of labels
which had all the credits on one side and a picture on the other - in this case,
a rather pleasant picture of an Old English Sheepdog. Other labels with
the same idea were Charly, Dandelion, Neon, Ork, Small Wonder, and
Vertigo. The only other Tangsong production that has crossed my path was a
Glam Rock single by Sisters, 'Kick Your Boots Off', which was issued on Bell
(BELL-1307) in 1973. All were Nick Smith productions, suggesting that
Tangsong was his company. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The Info.
