CREWE



American, out of New York.  Crewe was owned by producer Bob Crewe, and was the successor to his New Voice and Dyno Voice labels.  It lasted from 1969 to 1971 in its native land and registered hits over there with the Four Seasons and Oliver.  In Britain, however, it seems to have issued only three albums and four singles, all of them in 1970 and all of them unsuccessful in terms of Chart entry.   Numbering of the singles was in the CRW-0s; manufacture and distribution were by Pye, with demos being in the usual yellow-labelled Pye style of that period.
