CRYSTAL
Crystal
Records and Crystal Publishing were started up in 1969 by songwriter/engineer/
producer Jack Price and Jean Domminney. The label's product was a
mixture of Pop, Soul and Reggae; in the early '70s Price started the Reggae-only
Sioux label, which he relaunched in 1996. Both Crystal and Sioux
records were manufactued by President; distribution was by Enterprise, Lugton
and H. R. Taylor. Numbering of Crystal singles was in the
CR-7000s. The label's design stayed the same throughout its life, but
it came in four different colour schemes: yellow and black to at least
CR-1011, then red with black printing to CR-1017,
then pale yellow with black printing to CR-1020,and finally black
and silver. The company seems to have stopped issuing records in or
around 1978. It never enjoyed any hits, but at various times it had
past-hit-makers The Cats and Craig Douglas on its books. Thanks to Robert Lyons
for the info. Manufactured And Distributed By President
Records.
