It is a an LA label. Kim Fowley was the recording manager and alot of the
stuff has his fingerprints all over it. "Popsicles and Icicles" by The
Murmaids (which was written by David Gates) is on the label. I also have
some Thee Midniters 45s on the label (including a version of "Land Of 1000
Dances" that was released around the same time as Cannibal and The
Headhunters version). We have a good chunk of the label's output, including
"Inferno". There's something about it that always kind of reminded me of
"Telstar". It's ok and though not as good as I'd hoped, it's worth picking
up (but I wouldn't want to pay more than $20). I picked most of mine up when
I lived near Echo Park and only paid a buck or two for the records. "Ebony"
is a lot better- it's pretty similar to "Hideaway" by Freddie King. You can
check out a sample of the record (and "Ebony") here
