One of those Google-resistant labels which came and went, around the end of the '70s. According to Music Master, Chancery issued the single shown above, 'Operator' b/w 'Bounce Right Back', by Heartbeat, in July 1979. Despite the evidence of its catalogue number, CH-42, I find it hard to believe that there were forty-one other Chancery singles and that they've all disappeared without trace; nor does the number fit into any sequence that I've happened upon. I can only assume that the numbers started and ended at CH-42 for some reason. As for the music on the record: the 'A' side is country-tinged religious Disco Pop with female vocals; the 'B' side, which has male vocals, is an insistent and quite hooky Pop song - it's a pity that it's mono and it sounds as though it was recorded in somebody's front room. Be that as it may; pressing was by Lyntone, the matrix numbers being LYN-6887/8, and distribution was by H. R. Taylor.
