EVOLUTION (2)
An independent label from the Punk / New Wave
era. Evolution released one single in 1979 and eight more
in 1980. Two of them, 'In Love' (EV-1; 10/79), and 'Put With Me All
Night' (EV-4; 4/80) were by Punk group The Plague, the first being a reissue of
a single that had originally been put out on Psycho (q.v.) six months
earlier. There were also three albums, by Manchester United F.C.,
the Wales Rugby Team, and Tom Paxton. The 1980s issues were manufactured
and distributed by RCA. The songs on the few '80s issues that I
have seen pictured have been published by Rulven, which suggests
that Evolution may have had a connection to that
company.
