PLANETONE
RECORDS
Planetone was an early label on the London ska
scene founded by Sonny Roberts in 1962 and thus "probably the first black owned
record label in Britain. The Planetone studio "was situated in the basement
of 108 Cambridge Road, London NW6 ... Sonny lined the studio walls with egg
boxes to provide sound insulation, and either the recording equipment was very
crude or Sonny was still learning to use it, for many Planetone records sound
underproduced. Apparently he had a one-track machine, with little remixing
capability. He even cut his own masters in the room next to the
studio
