HARON

 

Haron appears to have been a DIY label.  It issued two records; both of them featured Harry Bolder, which suggests that he was one of the people behind the label - probably the 'Har' of 'Haron'.  First out of the blocks was a maxi-single offering 'Sunday Trip To Withernsea' b/w 'Bummy's Cart' and 'Knees Up Mother Brown', by Harry Bolder with the Pat Collins Trio, which had a catalogue number of SRTS/FMR-005 and came out in 1977.  The 'SRTS/FMR' prefix indicates that the single was recorded by Fairview Music (q.v.) studios, of Hull, and that it was made through custom recording firm SRT.  The second release was another three-tracker with Harry offering 'Back O' Threepenny Stand' and '27744' on one side while Clive Hunter provided 'The Wembley Song (Glory, Glory Hull And Rovers')' on the other.  That came out in 1980 and was numbered HAR-002; its matrix number, S/80/CUS-776, shows that it too was an SRT product.  The labels this time were of a different design; an example can be found on the 45cat site .
