I'm not altogether sure that Phonogram Special Projects qualifies for inclusion on this site, as nothing on it was ever available to the general public; the EPs on it were merely intended as promotional tools. There were at least two of them, they came out in or around 1977, and, if the one shown above is typical, they combined sketches and snippets of tracks from albums the various Phonogram family labels. The idea was to persuade companies to assemble their own promotional records from tracks from Phonogram's back catalogue. Numbering was in the SPD-100s. SPD-100 featured Peters & Lee's 'Dance In The Old Fashioned Way' as well as tracks by Syd Lawrence, Chaquito and Val Doonican. The sketch on SPD-101 features a couple of supposed Phonogram representatives trying to supply a Mr. P-Orn with suitable music to go with his 'Filth, Filth & More Filth' films. The 'B' side contains slightly longer excerpts of tracks by Thin Lizzy, 10 C.C. and other Phonogram artists.
