MIDDLE EARTH
RECORDS

A short-lived but nowadays highly-collectable label. Middle Earth lasted from 1969-70, and issued at least five singles, all of which go for double-figure sums - £20 plus - nowadays. LPs by Arcadium and the Writing On The Wall tend to go for three figures. Writing On The Wall and Arcadium were Rock bands, Tam White was a Soul / Rock singer, while the Sweet Plum singles were a sort of orchestrated Pop. Manufacture and distribution of Middle Earth records were by Pye; as was the case with other Pye labels of that time, demo copies were coloured yellow. Thanks to Robert Lyons for the info.
