THE LABEL
RECORDS
Independent label: The Label Records was an early Punk
label, set up by Sex Pistols producer Dave Goodman and Caruzo Fuller. The
Label survived to issue eleven singles, including three by Eater, during the
period 1977-79, and had a short-lived Reggae offshoot, Boa. Distribution early
on was by Virgin; Pinnacle took over before TLR-008. The only two singles
that I have seen in the vinyl were Pye pressings. The company had a base
in Japan, which may explain why one of its releases was 'Ageso-Na-Omae' b/w
'Yamate' by Peko and Naka (TLR-002). Dave Goodman (29 March 1951 Died 10
February 2005) was a record producer and musician, perhaps best known as the
live sound engineer for Sex Pistols, and the producer of three of their studio
demo sessions. Dave Goodman died of a heart attack at his home in Malta. Eater
were an early British punk band from London who took their name from a Marc
Bolan lyric. The band was formed in 1976 by four high school friends:
Anglo-Egyptian singer and guitarist Andy Blade (real name: Ashruf Radwan).
guitarist Brian Chevette (real name: Brian Haddock), drummer Dee Generate (real
name: Roger Bullen) and bassist Ian Woodcock. Eater were known for being one of
the youngest bands, if not the youngest band, in the punk scene. They were 14–17
years old when they formed the band. Thanks to Robert Lyons For The
Info.
