PALACE



A DIY label from Manchester.  Palace was the outlet for records by popular and successful female impersonator Frank 'Foo Foo' Lammar.  It put out two LPs: 'My Life At The Palace', in 1975, and 'My Own Special Creation', in the mid '80s.  The record which qualifies it for this site, however, was a 1975 EP featuring 'On A Clear Day', 'Till', 'You'll Never Walk Alone' and 'My Way', which are all Club / Cabaret standards.  The catalogue number of the EP, MAG-0007, was one of a series used by custom recording concern Magnum Recording Studios, of Hyde, Cheshire - see 'Magnum (Custom)' for some of their other releases.  Pressing was by Phonodisc.  Thanks to Nicholas Hough for supplying the scan.
