RED DOMINO
RECORDS
Red Domino was the sister-label to
Domino. Both were owned by the Ditchburn Organisation, of Lytham, whose
main business was the supply of jukeboxes and vending-machines. The fare
offered by both labels seems to have been pub-singalong stuff, of the type made
popular in the late '50s and early '60s by the likes of Mrs. Mills - who
actually recorded a single for Red Domino - and the Big Ben Banjo
Band. Presumably there was a difference between the sort of material
which came out on Red Domino and that which surfaced on the parent label, but
it's not immediately obvious what that difference was. Be that as it
may, Red Domino had the same design as Domino, apart from the addition of the
word 'RED' above the logo. Singles were numbered in an RD-100
numerical series, and there were at least three of them. The rarity
of records on Red Domino suggests that the label didn't last for very long.
