It's possible that this second Channel label was actually the same as the first one, but there are enough differences between them for me to reckon that that probably wasn't the case and that the two concerns just picked the same name by chance - it was, after all, a logical enough one. The only record that I have seen on this Channel label is the one shown above, an EP by Alex & Diane featuring the tracks 'Amazing Grace', 'I Learned To Yodel', 'I Love You Because', and 'Seven Lonely Days'. Its catalogue number, EDEN EP-41, is in a different series to the 'CR'-prefixed ones used by the Jersey-based Channel Records, and indicates that it was made through custom recording concern Eden Studios (q.v.). Comparison with other Eden records suggests that it was released in or around 1971. The EP was recorded in Guernsey; presumably Alex & Diane were a Club / Cabaret duo performing there at the time. Reports of any other Channel Recordings would be welcome. Thanks to Barry Adcock for supplying the scan.
