A DIY label. In 1973 the Choir of St. Andrew's church, Uxbridge, recorded a Christmas EP called 'Carolcade', under director Brian Trant. As can be seen from the scan there was no label name on the record, but as I've had to call it something and the catalogue number was STAU-1 I've chosen to take those letters as initials, more or less, and go with 'St. Andrew's, Uxbridge'. Tracks on the record are 'Ding Dong Merrily On High', 'In The Bleak Midwinter', 'Torches', 'The Nativity Carol' and 'De Virgin Mary'; proceeds from sales went to the church's Choir & Organ Fund. Pressing was by small independent company C.H. Rumble. The labels were laminated, which seems to have been a process peculiar to that firm.
